    Michel de #Montaigne ci lasciò esattamente 434 anni fa. La sua opera più celebre, i #Saggi, è un viaggio itinerante attraverso le molteplici sfaccettature dell’essere umano, tanto “ondeggiante e vario” da non smettere mai di #meravigliare 🌊
    Nel suo volume, Montaleone lo ripercorre cercando di ricostruire il #pensiero del #filosofo su #amore, #politica e #conoscenza 🔎

  18. A quotation from Montaigne

    Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) French essayist

  19. Ist Freundschaft nicht eine vollwertige Beziehung, bloß ohne das körperliche halt, oder gibt es da einfach Abstufungen? Ist es ein fluides Spektrum irgendwo zwischen zufälligem Treffen, Bekanntschaft und bestem Freund dem ich meine dunkelsten Geheimnisse anvertraue? Natürlich ist es das. Freundschaften muss man gar nicht unbedingt genau definieren, entweder sie gibt einem ein positives […]

  24. A quotation from Montaigne

    We must be content with the light that it may please the sun to shed upon us by his beams; and he who shall raise his eyes to bring a brighter beam into his very body, let him not think it strange if, for the punishment of his audacity, he thus lose his sight.
     
    [Il se faut contenter de la lumiere qu’il plaist au Soleil nous communiquer par ses rayons, & qui eslevera ses yeux pour en prendre une plus grande dans son corps mesme, qu’il ne trouve pas estrange, si pour la peine de son outrecuidance il y perd la veuë.]

    Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) French essayist
    Essay (1572), “We Should Meddle Soberly with Judging Divine Ordinances [Qu’il faut sobrement se mesler de juger des ordonnances divines],” Essays, Book 1, ch. 31 (1.31) (1595) [tr. Ives (1925), 1.32]

  25. Wherever your life ends,
    it is all there.
    The advantage of living
    is not measured by length
    but by use.
    Some people have lived long
    and lived little.
    Attend to it while you are in it.
    It lies in your will,
    not in the number of years,
    for you to have lived enough.

  26. “We say, ‘I have done nothing today.’

    What! Have you not lived? That is not only the fundamental, but the most illustrious of your occupations.” -Montaigne
