Question

Our utmost endeavors cannot arrive at so much as to imitate the nest of the least of birds, its contexture, beauty, and convenience: not so much as the web of a poor spider. All things, says Plato, are produced either by nature, by fortune, or by art; the greatest and most beautiful by the one or the other of the former, the least and the most imperfect by the last.

Answer 2

Nature creates more superior things than human ability can.

Step-by-step explanation:

The paragraph written by Montiagne states that nature is perfect, beautiful, incomparable and unreachable. He makes many compliments, the way nature creates things, how it renews itself, and how everything seems to have admirable harmony. For the author, the capacity for creation of nature, far above human capacity, the human being, however talented, will never create with such perfection. For this reason, we can phrase the Montiagne paragraph as: "Nature creates more superior things than human ability can."
