Synopsis
On appelle methode, l'ordre que la pensee doit suivre pour parvenir a la sagesse et conformement auquel elle pense une fois qu'elle y est parvenue. Mais qu'est-ce que la sagesse? C'est la chose du monde la plus desirable, et celle pourtant a laquelle les hommes pensent le moins. Or, le philosophe s'interesse beaucoup moins au contenu qu'a la perfection de son esprit meme; il s'efforce d'acquerir une intelligence toujours capable de discerner le vrai dans l'ordre theorique et une volonte toujours capable de suivre le bien dans l'ordre pratique; c'est etre sage que de les avoir acquis; philosopher, c'est travailler a les acquerir.

About the Author
Ren? Descartes, known as the Father of Modern Philosophy and inventor of Cartesian coordinates, was a seventeenth century French philosopher, mathematician, and writer. Descartes made significant contributions to the fields of philosophy and mathematics, and was a proponent of rationalism, believing strongly in fact and deductive reasoning. Working in both French and Latin, he wrote many mathematical and philosophical works including The World, Discourse on a Method, Meditations on First Philosophy, and Passions of the Soul. He is perhaps best known for originating the statement I think, therefore I am.
