Some, either from being glued to vice by a natural attachment, or from long habit, no longer recognize its ugliness. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
It is not a mind, it is not a body that we educate, but it is a man, and we must not make two parts of him. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
In true education, anything that comes to our hand is as good as a book: the prank of a page- boy, the blunder of a servant, a bit of table talk - they are all part of the curriculum. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
Stubborn and ardent clinging to one’s opinion is the best proof of stupidity (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)

I enter into discussion and argument with great freedom and ease, inasmuch as opinion finds me in a bad soil to penetrate and take deep root in. No propositions astonish me, no belief offends me, whatever contrast it offers to my own. There is no fancy so frivolous and so extravagant that it does not seem to me quite suitable to the production of the human mind. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
Don’t discuss yourself, for you are bound to lose; if you belittle yourself, you are believed; if you praise yourself, you are disbelieved. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)

What kind of truth is this which is true on one side of a mountain and false on the other? (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
Even those who argue against fame still want the books they write against it to bear their name in the title and hope to become famous for despising it (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
A man should think less of what he eats and more with whom he eats because no food is so satisfying as good company. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
If a man should importune me to give a reason why I loved him, I find it could no otherwise be expressed, than by making answer: because it was he, because it was I. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
No spiritual mind remains within itself; it is always aspiring and going beyond its own strength (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
A good marriage ... is a sweet association in life: full of constancy, trust, and an infinite number of useful and solid services and mutual obligations. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
A good marriage (if any there be) refuses the conditions of love and endeavors to present those of amity. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
If by being overstudious, we impair our health and spoil our good humor, let us give it up (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
It needs good management to enjoy life. I enjoy it twice as much as others, for the measure of enjoyment depends on the greater or less attention that we give to it...The shorter my possession of life the deeper and fuller I must make it. (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
Friendship is a creature formed for a companionship not for a herd (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
There are some defeats more triumphant than victories (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
Old age puts more wrinkles in our minds than on our faces (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
Lend yourself to others, but give yourself to yourself (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
Rejoice in the things that are present; all else is beyond thee (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
Nothing fixes a thing so intensely in the memory as the wish to forget it (Michel De Montaigne Quotes)
