But to my mind, though I am native here, And to the manner born, it is a custom, More honored in the breach than the observance.

“What is morality but immemorial custom? Conscience is the chief of conservatives.”
“We become aware, however, that all customs, even the hardest, grow pleasanter and milder with time, and that the severest way of life may become a habit and therefore a pleasure.”
“Montaigne is wrong in declaring that custom ought to be followed simply because it is custom, and not because it is reasonable or just.”
