Chapter VIII of Book III is the best in #MichelDeMontaigne’s #Essays so far.

I’m highlighting so many insightful passages having to do with #rationality, #logic, rules of discourse, merit vs chance, etc. And it is the more timely for me as I’m right now pondering the value of debating ideas with strangers, and of #SocialMedia more broadly.

I shall share many quotes and thoughts on a blog post when I’m done, as I’ve done with the previous two books.
