Jean Jacques Rousseau Quotes

We are born weak, we need strength; helpless, we need aid; foolish, we need reason. All that we lack at birth, all that we need when we come to man's estate, is the gift of education.
We are born, so to speak, twice over; born into existence, and born into life; born a human being, and born a man.
We do not know what is really good or bad fortune.
We pity in others only the those evils which we ourselves have experienced.
We should not teach children the sciences; but give them a taste for them.
What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?
When something an affliction happens to you, you either let it defeat you, or you defeat it.
Whoever blushes is already guilty; true innocence is ashamed of nothing.
You forget that the fruits belong to all and that the land belongs to no one.
