Why is it that I am suddenly finding quotes that seem especially good? A sign of the season, perhaps.

"Notre grand et glorieux chef-d'oeuvre, c'est vivre à propos. Toutes autres choses, régner, thésauriser, bâtir, n'en sont qu'appendicules et adminicules pour le plus." - Michel de Montagne

Or in English: "Our greatest and most glorious achievement is to live as we should. Everything else such as ruling, amassing wealth, and constructing are at most only adjuncts and props." - Michel de Montagne
