More quotes by Michel de Montaigne
They make me hate things that are likely, when they would impose them upon me as infallible.
I do not speak the minds of others except to speak my own mind better.
What of a truth that is bounded by these mountains and is falsehood to the world that lives beyond?
God's justice and His power are inseparable; 'tis in vain we invoke His power in an unjust cause.
Man is certainly stark mad; he cannot make a worm, and yet he will be making gods by dozens.

Many more people in the world are concerned with sports than with human rights.
By sports like these are all their cares beguil'd;
The sports of children satisfy the child.
The shame is not in having sported, but in not having broken off the sport.
If all the year were playing holidays;
to sport would be as tedious as work.
