Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Quotations
We are born, so to speak, twice over; born into existence, and born into life; born a human being, and born a man.
We are born weak, we need strength; helpless, we need aid; foolish, we need reason. All that we lack at birth, all that we need when we come to man's estate, is the gift of education.
Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains.
Although modesty is natural to man, it is not natural to children. Modesty only begins with the knowledge of evil.
It is too difficult to think nobly when one thinks only of earning a living.
