Newborns become who they are through education
“strength of a grown man, that he emerged, so to speak, fully armed from his mother's womb as did Pallas from the brain of Jupiter”. Even if this newborn possessed a fully developed body, he would lack the ability to judge or understand his own physicality. Rousseau concludes, “This man-child would be a perfect imbecile, an automaton, an immobile and almost insensible statue.”
