# CONFESSIONS OF ROUSSEAU

## By Jean Jacques Rousseau

Stealing an Apple
The Laboratory
The Hermitage

    A feeling heart the foundation of all
    my misfortunes

    A religion preached by such
    missionaries must lead to paradise!

    A subject not even fit to make a priest
    of

    A man, on being questioned, is
    immediately on his guard

    Adopted the jargon of books, than the
    knowledge they contained

    All animals are distrustful of man, and
    with reason

    All your evils proceed from yourselves!

    An author must be independent of
    success

    Ardor for learning became so far a
    madness

    Aversion to singularity

    Avoid putting our interests in
    competition with our duty

    Being beat like a slave, I judged I had
    a right to all vices

    Bilboquet

    Catholic must content himself with the
    decisions of others

    Caution is needless after the evil has
    happened

    Cemented by reciprocal esteem

    Considering this want of decency as an
    act of courage

    Conversations were more serviceable
    than his prescriptions

    Degree of sensuality had mingled with
    the smart and shame

    Die without the aid of physicians

    Difficult to think nobly when we think
    for a livelihood

    Dine at the hour of supper; sup when I
    should have been asleep

    Disgusted with the idle trifling of a
    convent

    Dissembler, though, in fact, I was only
    courteous

    Dying for love without an object

    Endeavoring to hide my incapacity, I
    rarely fail to show it

    Endeavoring to rise too high we are in
    danger of falling

    Ever appearing to feel as little for
    others as herself

    Finding in every disease symptoms
    similar to mine

    First instance of violence and
    oppression is so deeply engraved

    First time in my life, of saying, "I
    merit my own esteem"

    Flattery, or rather condescension, is
    not always a vice

    Force me to be happy in the manner they
    should point out

    Foresight with me has always embittered
    enjoyment

    Hastening on to death without having
    lived

    Hat, only fit to be carried under his
    arm

    Have the pleasure of seeing an ass ride
    on horseback

    Have ever preferred suffering to owing

    Her excessive admiration or dislike of
    everything

    Hold fast to aught that I have, and yet
    covet nothing more

    Hopes, in which self-love was by no
    means a loser

    How many wrongs are effaced by the
    embraces of a friend!

    I never much regretted sleep

    I strove to flatter my idleness

    I never heard her speak ill of persons
    who were absent

    I loved her too well to wish to possess
    her

    I felt no dread but that of being
    detected

    I was long a child, and am so yet in
    many particulars

    I am charged with the care of myself
    only

    I only wished to avoid giving offence

    I did not fear punishment, but I
    dreaded shame

    I had a numerous acquaintance, yet no
    more than two friends

    Idea of my not being everything to her

    Idleness is as much the pest of society
    as of solitude

    If you have nothing to do, you must
    absolutely speak continually

    In the course of their lives frequently
    unlike themselves

    In company I suffer cruelly by inaction

    In a nation of blind men, those with
    one eye are kings

    Indolence, negligence and delay in
    little duties to be fulfilled

    Indolence of company is burdensome
    because it is forced

    Injustice of mankind which embitters
    both life and death

    Insignificant trash that has obtained
    the name of education

    Instead of being delighted with the
    journey only wished arrival

    Is it possible to dissimulate with
    persons whom we love?

    Jean Bapiste Rousseau

    Knew how to complain, but not how to
    act

    Law that the accuser should be confined
    at the same time

    Left to nature the whole care of my own
    instruction

    Less degree of repugnance in divulging
    what is really criminal

    Letters illustrious in proportion as it
    was less a trade

    Loaded with words and redundancies

    Looking on each day as the last of my
    life

    Love of the marvellous is natural to
    the human heart

    Make men like himself, instead of
    taking them as they were

    Making their knowledge the measure of
    possibilities

    Making me sensible of every deficiency

    Manoeuvres of an author to the care of
    publishing a good book

    Men, in general, make God like
    themselves

    Men of learning more tenaciously retain
    their prejudices

    Mistake wit for sense

    Moment I acquired literary fame, I had
    no longer a friend

    Money that we possess is the instrument
    of liberty

    Money we lack and strive to obtain is
    the instrument of slavery

    More stunned than flattered by the
    trumpet of fame

    More folly than candor in the
    declaration without necessity

    Multiplying persons and adventures

    My greatest faults have been omissions

    Myself the principal object

    Necessity, the parent of industry,
    suggested an invention

    Neither the victim nor witness of any
    violent emotions

    No sooner had lost sight of men than I
    ceased to despise them

    No longer permitted to let old people
    remain out of Paris

    Not so easy to quit her house as to
    enter it

    Not knowing how to spend their time,
    daily breaking in upon me

    Nothing absurd appears to them
    incredible

    Obliged to pay attention to every
    foolish thing uttered

    Obtain their wishes, without permitting
    or promising anything

    One of those affronts which women
    scarcely ever forgive

    Only prayer consisted in the single
    interjection "Oh!"

    Painful to an honest man to resist
    desires already formed

    Passed my days in languishing in
    silence for those I most admire

    Piety was too sincere to give way to
    any affectation of it

    Placing unbounded confidence in myself
    and others

    Prescriptions serve to flatter the
    hopes of the patient

    Priests ought never to have children—
    except by married women

    Proportioned rather to her ideas than
    abilities

    Protestants, in general, are better
    instructed

    Rather bashful than modest

    Rather appeared to study with than to
    instruct me

    Read the hearts of others by
    endeavoring to conceal our own

    Read description of any malady without
    thinking it mine

    Read without studying

    Remorse wakes amid the storms of
    adversity

    Remorse sleeps in the calm sunshine of
    prosperity

    Reproach me with so many contradictions

    Return of spring seemed to me like
    rising from the grave

    Rogues know how to save themselves at
    the expense of the feeble

    Satisfaction of weeping together

    Seeking, by fresh offences, a return of
    the same chastisement

    Sin consisted only in the scandal

    Slighting her favors, if within your
    reach, a unpardonable crime

    Sometimes encourage hopes they never
    mean to realize

    Substituting cunning to knowledge

    Supposed that certain, which I only
    knew to be probable

    Taught me it was not so terrible to
    thieve as I had imagined

    That which neither women nor authors
    ever pardon

    The malediction of knaves is the glory
    of an honest man

    The conscience of the guilty would
    revenge the innocent

    There is nothing in this world but time
    and misfortune

    There is no clapping of hands before
    the king

    This continued desire to control me in
    all my wishes

    Though not a fool, I have frequently
    passed for one

    To make him my apologies for the
    offence he had given me

    True happiness is indescribable, it is
    only to be felt

    Trusting too implicitly to their own
    innocence

    Tyranny of persons who called
    themselves my friends

    Virtuous minds, which vice never
    attacks openly

    Voltaire was formed never to be (happy)

    We learned to dissemble, to rebel, to
    lie

    What facility everything which favors
    the malignity of man

    When once we make a secret of anything
    to the person we love

    When everyone is busy, you may continue
    silent

    Whence comes it that even a child can
    intimidate a man

    Where merit consists in belief, and not
    in virtue

    Whole universe would be interested in
    my concerns

    Whose discourses began by a
    distribution of millions

    Wish thus to be revenged of me for
    their humiliation

    Without the least scruple, freely
    disposing of my time

    Writing for bread would soon have
    extinguished my genius

    Yielded him the victory, or rather
    declined the contest

         License.  You must require such a user to return or
         destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
         and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
         Project Gutenberg-tm works.

    - You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any

    Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the
    Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.

    1.F.

    1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
    effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
    public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
    collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
    works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
    "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
    corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
    property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
    computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
    your equipment.

    1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
    of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
    Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
    Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
    Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
    liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
    fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
    LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
    PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
    TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
    LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
    INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
    DAMAGE.

    1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
    defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
    receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
    written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
    received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
    your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
    the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
    refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
    providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
    receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
    is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
    opportunities to fix the problem.

    1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
    in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER

    1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
    warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
    If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
    law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
    interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
    the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
    provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.

    1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
    trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
    providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
    with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
    promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
    harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
    that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
    or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
    work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
    Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.

    Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

    Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
    electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
    including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
    because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
    people in all walks of life.

    Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
    assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
    goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
    remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
    Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
    and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
    To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
    and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
    and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

    Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
    Literary Archive Foundation

    Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
    spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
    increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
    freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
    array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
    ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
    status with the IRS.

    The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
    charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
    States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
    considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
    with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
    where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
    SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
    particular state visit http://pglaf.org

    While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
    have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
    against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
    approach us with offers to donate.

    International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
    any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
    outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

    Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
    methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
    ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
    donations.  To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

    Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
    works.

    Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
    concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
    with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
    Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

    Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
    editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
    unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
    keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

    including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
    Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
