Montaigne on Spontaneous Social Order

April 16, 2018 By Sandy Ikeda Leave a Comment

“In fine, I see from our example that human society holds and is knit together at any cost whatever. Whatever position you set men in, they pile up and arrange themselves by moving and crowding together just as ill-matched objects, put in a bag without order, find of themselves a way to unite and fall into place together, often better than they could have been arranged by art.”

Michel de Montaigne
