WIST Quotations

A quotation from Montaigne

Philosophy does not do battle against such pleasures as are natural, provided that temperance accompanies them; she teaches moderation in such things not avoidance.
 
[La philosophie n’estrive point contre les voluptez naturelles, pourveu que la mesure y soit joincte : & en presche la moderation, non la fuitte.]

Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592) French essayist
Essay (1586), “On some Lines of Virgil [Sur des vers de Virgile], Essays, Book 3, ch. 5 (3.5) (1595) [tr. Screech (1987)]
