service to you." Deference further serves to distinguish the great. Now if
deference was displayed by sitting in an arm-chair, we should show deference
to everybody, and so no distinction would be made; but, being put to
inconvenience, we distinguish very well.
318. He has four lackeys.
319. How rightly do we distinguish men by external appearances rather than
by internal qualities! Which of us two shall have precedence? Who will give
place to the other? The least clever. But I am as clever as he. We should
have to fight over this. He has four lackeys, and I have only one. This can
be seen; we have only to count. It falls to me to yield, and I am a fool if
I contest the matter. By this means we are at peace, which is the greatest
of boons.
320. The most unreasonable things in the world become most reasonable,
because of the unruliness of men. What is less reasonable than to choose the
eldest son of a queen to rule a State? We do not choose as captain of a ship
the passenger who is of the best family.
This law would be absurd and unjust; but, because men are so themselves and
always will be so, it becomes reasonable and just. For whom will men choose,
as the most virtuous and able? We at once come to blows, as each claims to
be the most virtuous and able. Let us then attach this quality to something
indisputable. This is the king's eldest son. That is clear, and there is no
dispute. Reason can do no better, for civil war is the greatest of

occupations, as in making a voyage, we should suffer almost as much as if it
were real, and should fear to sleep, as we fear to wake when we dread in
fact to enter on such mishaps. And, indeed, it would cause pretty nearly the
same discomforts as the reality.
But since dreams are all different, and each single one is diversified, what
is seen in them affects us much less than what we see when awake, because of
its continuity, which is not, however, so continuous and level as not to
change too; but it changes less abruptly, except rarely, as when we travel,
and then we say, "It seems to me I am dreaming." For life is a dream a
little less inconstant.
387. It may be that there are true demonstrations; but this is not certain.
Thus, this proves nothing else but that it is not certain that all is
uncertain, to the glory of scepticism.
388. Good sense.--They are compelled to say, "You are not acting in good
faith; we are not asleep," etc. How I love to see this proud reason
humiliated and suppliant! For this is not the language of a man whose right
is disputed, and who defends it with the power of armed hands. He is not
foolish enough to declare that men are not acting in good faith, but he
punishes this bad faith with force.
389. Ecclesiastes shows that man without God is in total ignorance and
inevitable misery. For it is wretched to have the wish, but not the power.
Now he would be happy and assured of some truth, and yet he can neither
know, nor desire not to know. He cannot even doubt.
390. My God! How foolish this talk is! "Would God have made the world to
damn it? Would He ask so much from persons so weak"? etc. Scepticism is the
cure for this evil, and will take down this vanity.
391. Conversation.--Great words: Religion, I deny it.
Conversation.--Scepticism helps religion.
392. Against Sceptici
