Summary

This quote suggests that rigorous and effective tests have the power to disprove flawed theories or hypotheses. By subjecting these theories to scrutiny and empirical analysis, tests can expose their weaknesses and contradictions. However, instead of considering this as a defeat, the quote emphasizes that this process allows us to learn from our mistakes and make new guesses or hypotheses. We are encouraged to remain resilient and open-minded in our search for truth, accepting challenges and continuing the process of exploration and interpretation.

Life is extraordinarily suave and sweet with certain natural

Life is extraordinarily suave and sweet with certain natural, witty, affectionate people who have unusual distinction and are capable of every vice, but who make a display of none in public and about whom no one can affirm they have a single one.

No profession or occupation is more pleasing than the milita

No profession or occupation is more pleasing than the military; a profession or exercise both noble in execution (for the strongest, most generous and proudest of all virtues is true valor) and noble in its cause.

The company and daily conversation of so many noble, young and active men cannot but be well-pleasing to you.

Michel de Montaigne

The search for Nirvana, like the search for Utopia or the end of history or the classless society, is ultimately a futile and dangerous one. It involves, if it does not necessitate, the sleep of reason. There is no escape from anxiety and struggle.
