Καλό είναι να έχουμε κάποιες γνώσεις για τα ήθη των διαφόρων λαών, έτσι ώστε να κρίνουμε τα δικά μας πιο δίκαια και να μη θεωρούμε πως οτιδήποτε διαφέρει από τις δικές μας συνήθειες είναι γελοίο και αντίθετο προς τη λογική, όπως κάνουν όσοι δεν έχουν δει τίποτα.

There is no need to allege that Descartes sat in or on a stove. A poêle is simply a room heated by an earthenware stove. Cf. E. Gilson, Discours de la méthode: texte et commentaire, 4th edition (Paris: Vrin, 1967), p. 157.
