Quote by Michel de Montaigne

English (Source)

Most of the world's rules require us to give up on ourselves and stand on the square, serving among them. People consider it their merit to divert us from ourselves, since by natural inclination we are supposed to be too attached to our precious person anyway; and they use every argument to defend their case. But is this the first time that wise men do not present things as they are, but consider their benefits?

Hungarian

A világ legtöbb regulája megköveteli, hogy mondjunk le önmagunkról s álljunk ki a placcra, szolgáljuk a közt. Az emberek ér­demüknek tartják, hogy eltérítnek önma­gunktól, hiszen természetes hajlamból állí­tólag amúgy is túlságosan ragaszkodunk be­cses személyünkhöz; és ügyük védelmére minden érvet felvonultatnak. De hát ez va­jon az első eset, hogy a bölcsek nem olya­noknak tüntetik fel a dolgokat, amilyenek, hanem a hasznukat mérlegelik?
