Michel de Montaigne Glory Quotations

Glory and repose are things that cannot possibly inhabit in one and the same place.

The shortest way to arrive at glory would be to do that for conscience which we do for glory.

Glory consists of two parts: the one in setting too great a value upon ourselves, and the other in setting too little a value upon others.

Plenty and indigence depend upon the opinion every one has of them; and riches, like glory of health, have no more beauty or pleasure than their possessor is pleaded to lend them.
