No matter when the horn of the final judgment is sounded, I can walk up to the supreme judge with this book in my hand and say to him in a loud voice, "What I have done in the world, what I have thought about, and how I have been a man are all recorded here. No matter good or bad, I am equally frank; Neither conceal bad things, nor add good deeds. Although I occasionally wrote some unimportant words as a foil in some places, it was entirely to fill the gap caused by my poor memory. I will probably say what I think is true, but I will never say what I know is true. I describe me as what I am. If I had acted meanly, I would have revealed my despicable behavior; If I am honest, upright and moral, I will honestly describe my character and noble moral integrity. I have opened my heart for you to see with your own eyes what it looks like.
Eternal God, please call all my Qian Qian compatriots to me to listen to my confession; Let them sigh for my despicable behavior, and let them feel ashamed of my cowardice and incompetence; Let every one of them reveal their hearts sincerely before your throne as I do, and then you can appoint any one of them to tell you if he dares to say,' I am better than this man.'
Rousseau is the only person in history who really showed himself to the world. In the book, he confessed many nasty things he had done. Including stealing, lying, framing others, whoring, sexual seduction, strong masochism tendency, and so on. This kind of sincerity and courage has not been achieved by the second person yet.
Rousseau, as a talented philosopher and novelist, seamlessly integrates his unique philosophy into his stories, which makes people feel amazing, admirable and hearty.
