Additional quotes by René Descartes

I took especially great pleasure in mathematics because of the certainty and the evidence of its arguments.

Η ικανότητα να κρίνει κανείς ορθά και να διακρίνει το σωστό από το λάθος- γεγονός στο οποίο ακριβώς εγκείται αυτό που ονομάζεται κοινός νους και λογική- είναι από τη φύση της ίδια σε όλυος τους ανθρώπους, και ότι, για τον λόγο αυτόν, η διαφορετικότητα των απόψεων μας δεν εξαρτάται από το γεγονός ότι κάποιοι είναι περισσότερο λογικοί απ' ό,τι άλλου, παρά μόνο από το ότι ακολουθούμε με ετις σκέψεις μας διαφορετικούς δρόμους και δεν λαμβάνουμε υπόψη μας τα ίδια πράγματα.

Conquer yourself rather than the world.
