I am about to read the final essay of Montaigne's. It took me several months to work my way through the entire book- I've been busy.
I think this is my new favorite text ever written.
I have over 8 pages of quotations collected.
Sheer genius!

"I despise the pleasure of pleasing people whom I despise."
"The most profound joy has more of gravity than gaiety in it."
^These two quotes, timeless..
Great video :D

I don't know if I agree with all of the quotes, but I certainly enjoyed this video. The music felt purposely and it matched the content of the quotes well.

Great video, thank you for making and posting it!
Are you going to do another "talking head" video anytime soon? I loved your rants about postmodernism.

"Are you going to do another "talking head" video anytime soon?"
Unfortunately, months ago my computer stopped letting me import videos from my camera. I have no idea what happened. Luckily, I can still make text videos.
