This time, I let talk bigger than me, and much! It is the best friend of Michel de Montaigne, \u00c9tienne de La Bo\u00e9tie. It was a suggestion from Milla<\/a> who kept me company during the great S\u00e9guinian depression of 2010. Thank you Milla!<\/span><\/p>\n

The discourse of voluntary servitude<\/h4>\n

(extract)<\/p>\n

“How can it be that so many men, so many cities, so many nations sometimes bear everything from a tyrant<\/a> alone, who has no power except the one given to him, who has no power to harm them, except as much as they will endure it, and who could do them no harm, if they did not like to suffer all things of him<\/a>, rather than contradict him.<\/p>\n

Something really surprising (and yet so common, that we should rather complain than be surprised), is to see millions of millions of men, Miserably enslaved and submissive, their heads bowed to a deplorable yoke, not that they are forced by any force of the earth, but because they are fascinated and So to speak, bewitched by the name of one whom they should not fear, for he is alone, nor cherish, since he is inhuman and cruel to them all.<\/p>\n

Isn’it a disgrace To see the human race In such a rat race?<\/p>
