> Quant on dit que cet enfant ne donnait aucun signe de raison, ce n'est pas qu'il ne raisonnât suffisamment pour veiller à sa conservation; mais c'est que sa réflexion, jusqu'alors appliquée à ce seul objet, n'avait point eu occasion de se porter sur ceux dont nous nous occupons... Le plus grand fonds des idées des hommes est dans leur commerce réciproque.
