This lecture discusses key ideas from the Renaissance-era philosopher, critic, and essayist Michel De Montaigne's work Essays, specifically his essay On Habit
It focuses upon how habit or custom has much more impact upon our lives than we often give it credit for, supplanting rules of nature, altering our perceptions, giving rise to judgements and opinions, and resisting our reasonings.
