Quote by Jean Jacques Rousseau

With children use force with men reason; such is the natural order of things. The wise man requires no law.

With children use force with men reason; such is the natural

Summary

This quote suggests that when dealing with children, it may sometimes be necessary to use force or authority in order to discipline or guide them. However, when interacting with adults or men, it is better to appeal to reason and logical arguments instead of resorting to force. It implies that respecting the natural order of social dynamics requires different approaches according to the age and maturity level of individuals. Furthermore, the quote implies that a truly wise person does not need external laws to govern their behavior, as their own reasoning and understanding guide them in making right choices.

Both my grandmothers had upright pianos, and I just knew how

Both my grandmothers had upright pianos, and I just knew how to play since I was a child. Nobody taught me. I sounded like a grown-up, and then I learned how to read music.
