More From Michel De Montaigne

Lying is a disgraceful vice, and one that plutarch paints in most disgraceful colors, when he says that it is "affording testimony that one first despises god, and then fears men." it is not possible more happily to describe its horrible, disgusting, and abandoned nature; for can we imagine anything more vile than to be cowards with regard to men, and brave with regard to god.
