Language Makes Infinite Use Of Finite Media.

Women Are In This Respect More Fortunate Than Men, That Most Of Their Employments Are Of Such A Nature That They Can At The Same Time Be Thinking Of Quite Different Things.

Absolutely Nothing Is So Important For A Nation's Culture As Its Language.

The Legislator Should Keep Two Things Constantly Before His Eyes: 1. The Pure Theory Developed To Its Minutest Details; 2. The Particular Condition Of Actual Things Which He Designs To Reform.

In Every Remodelling Of The Present, The Existing Condition Of Things Must Be Supplanted By A New One. Now Every Variety Of Circumstances In Which Men Find Themselves, Every Object Which Surrounds Them, Communicates A Definite Form And Impress To Their Internal Nature. This Form Is Not Such That It Can Change And Adapt Itself To Any Other A Man May Choose To Receive; And The End Is Foiled, While The Power Is Destroyed, When We Attempt To Impose Upon That Which Is Already Stamped In The Soul A Form Which Disagrees With It.

The State Is Not In Itself An End, But Is Only A Means Towards Human Development.
