More From Michel De Montaigne

If the lost word is lost, if the spent word is spent if the unheard, unspoken word is unspoken, unheard; still is the spoken word, the word unheard, the word without a word, the word within the world and for the world; and the light shone in the darkness and against the word the unstilled world still whirled about the center of the silent word. oh my people, what have i done unto thee. where shall the word be found, where shall the word resound? not here, there is not enough silence

Praise the name of baseball. the word will set captives free. the word will open the eyes of the blind. the word will raise the dead. have you the word of baseball living inside you? has the word of baseball become part of you? do you live it, play it, digest it, forever? let an old man tell you to make the word of baseball your life. walk into the world and speak of baseball. let the word flow through you like water, so that it may quicken the thirst of your fellow man.

If they embark on this course the difference between the old and the new education will be an important one. where the old initiated, the new merely 'conditions'. the old dealt with its pupils as grown birds deal with young birds when they teach them to fly; the new deals with them more as the poultry-keeper deals with young birds- making them thus or thus for purposes of which the birds know nothing. in a word, the old was a kind of propagation-men transmitting manhood to men; the new is merely propaganda.

I was like, "this is a new thing that the gay people have decided? that's the gayest thing i've ever heard in my life." you can't do that. you can't decide that a word is forbidden now collectively amongst your group of human beings, that the word is a slanderous evil nasty word about homosexuals. it's not, the word doesn't mean that. and sometimes it's a good word to use in comedy. that's what your friend has to realize when he's at a bar just yelling out the word.

If a thing is old, it is a sign that it was fit to live. old families, old customs, old styles survive because they are fit to survive. the guarantee of continuity is quality. submerge the good in a flood of the new, and good will come back to join the good which the new brings with it. old-fashioned hospitality, old-fashioned politeness, old-fashioned honor in business had qualities of survival. these will come back.
Business Style Survival
We are in love with the word. we are proud of it. the word precedes the formation of the state. the word comes to us from every avatar of early human existence. as writers, we are obliged more than others to keep our lives attached to the primitive power of the word. from india, out of the vedas, we still hear: on the spoken word, all the gods depend, all beasts and men; in the world live all creatures...the word is the name of the divine world.

In honest truth, a name given to a man is no better than a skin given to him; what is not natively his own falls off and comes to nothing.

Sometimes i think a man could wander across the disc all his life and not see everything there is to see,' said twoflower.
