    “Nevertheless, it is even harder for the average ape to believe that he has descended from man.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    “The mayor and Montaigne have always been two, with a very clear separation. For all of being a lawyer or a financier, we must not ignore the knavery there is in such callings. An honest man is not accountable for the vice or stupidity of his trade, and should not therefore refuse to practice it.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
