Just as we see that fallow land, if rich and fertile, teems with a hundred thousand kinds of wild and useless weeds, . . . so it is with minds. Unless you keep them busy with some definite subject that will bridle and control them, they throw themselves in disorder hither and yon in the vague field of imagination.
-Michel De Montaigne, The Complete Works, Book I, Chapter 8
