Additional quotes by Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Liberty is like those solid and tasty foods or those full-bodied wines which are appropriate for nourishing and strengthening robust constitutions that are used to them, but which overpower, ruin and intoxicate the weak and delicate who are not suited for them.

Çocuğun kazanmasına izin verilmesi gereken tek alışkanlık, hiçbir alışkanlık edinmemesidir; bir kolda ötekinden daha çok taşınmamalı; bir elini öteki elinden daha çok uzatmaya, onu daha sık kullanmaya, aynı saatlerde yemeye, uyumaya, davranmaya, ne gece ne gündüz tek başına kalamamaya alıştırılmamalı. Vücudunu doğal alışkanlığına bırakarak, onu her zaman kendisine egemen olacak ve her konuda, bir isteği olduğunda, bu isteği gerçekleştirecek duruma getirerek, özgürlüğünün saltanatını yaşamaya ve gücünü kullanmaya şimdiden hazırlayınız.
