More quotes by Jean-Jacques Rousseau
The social pact, far from destroying natural equality, substitutes, on the contrary, a moral and lawful equality for whatever physical inequality that nature may have imposed on mankind so that however unequal in strength and intelligence, men become equal by covenant and by right.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
There are two things to be considered with regard to any scheme. In the first place, Is it good in itself? In the second, Can it be easily put into practice?
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Too much apparatus, designed to guide us in experiments and to supplement the exactness of our senses, makes us neglect to use those senses...The more ingenious our apparatus, the coarser and more unskillful are our senses. We surround ourselves with tools and fail to use those which nature has provided every one of us.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Jean-Jacques Rousseau

No man has any natural authority over his fellow men.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
The mechanism she employs is much more powerful than ours, for all her levers move the human heart.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Everything made by man may be destroyed by man there are no ineffaceable characters except those engraved by nature and nature makes neither princes nor rich men nor great lords.

He who pretends to look upon death without fear, lies
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
