More From Michel De Montaigne

For my part i love sleepy fellows, and the more ignorant the better. damn your wide-awake and knowing chaps. as for sleepiness, itis one of the noblest qualities of humanity. there is something sociable about it, too. think of those sensible & sociable millions of good fellows all taking a good long friendly snooze together, under the sod--no quarrels, no imaginary grievances, no envies, heart-burnings, & thinking how much better that other chap is off--none of this: but all equally free-&-easy, they sleep away & reel off their nine knots an hour, in perfect amity.

To the best of my knowledge and belief, the average american newspaper, even of the so-called better sort, is not only quite as bad as upton sinclair says it is, but 10 times worse, 10 times as ignorant, 10 times as unfair and tyrannical, 10 times as complaisant and pusillanimous, and 10 times as devious, hypocritical, disingenuous, deceitful, pharisaical, pecksniffian, fraudulent, slippery, unscrupulous, perfidious, lewd and dishonest.
Average Ignorant Belief
I hate all men, the ones because they are mean and vicious, and the others for being complaisant with the vicious ones.

Huskies get in trouble. huskies are well-known to be escape artists. why? because they were bred to go long-distance. they're not bred to be in the backyard and just look beautiful because they have blue eyes.
Beautiful Distance Eye
No town-bred dandy will compare with a country-bred one- i mean a downright bumpkin dandy- a fellow that, in the dog-days of summer, will mow his two acres in buckskin gloves for fear of tanning his hands.

On melbourne summer mornings the green trams go rolling in stately progress down tunnels thick with leaves: the bright air carries along the avenue their patient chime, the chattering of their wheels.
Summer Morning Tunnels
Strawberries that in gardens grow are plump and juicy fine, but sweeter far as wise men know spring from the woodland vine. no need for bowl or silver spoon, sugar or spice or cream, has the wild berry plucked in june beside the trickling stream. one such to melt at the tongue's root, confounding taste with scent, beats a full peck of garden fruit: which points my argument.
Summer Wise Spring
In the grand canyon, arizona has a natural wonder which is in kind absolutely unparalleled throughout the rest of the world. i want to ask you to keep this great wonder of nature as it now is. i hope you will not have a building of any kind, not a summer cottage, a hotel or anything else, to mar the wonderful grandeur, the sublimity, the great loneliness and beauty of the canyon. leave it as it is. you cannot improve on it. the ages have been at work on it, and man can only mar it.
Summer Loneliness Men
The sandy cat by the farmer's chair mews at his knee for dainty fare; old rover in his moss-greened house mumbles a bone, and barks at a mouse. in the dewy fields the cattle lie chewing the cud 'neath a fading sky; dobbin at manger pulls his hay: gone is another summer's day.
