"He whose mouth is out of taste says the wine is flat."
"He who would be cured of ignorance must confess it."
"He who fears he shall suffer, already suffers what he fears."
"Don't be ashamed to say what you are not ashamed to think."
"How many things served us but yesterday as articles of faith, which today we deem but fables?"
"Man is certainly stark mad. He cannot even make a worm, and yet he will be making gods by the dozens."
~Michel de Montaigne
(1533—1592)
