Cambridge Orations, 1982-1993: A Selection
I loved the line "I prefer to forge my mind, not furnish it." It is going on my inspiration chalkboard. In this chopped up "autobiography" Montaigne manages to comes through -- funny, insecure, profound, pompous, honest, contradictory and hilarious, but I think I would have done better to just read his essays. The thematic clumping, in roughly chronological order is a little forced, as you might suspect. The book can't do justice to the natural directions his rambly mind takes, and every time I wanted to follow him down a path I was made to jump to another, on and on, paragraph after paragraph.
