"There is no expedient to which man will not resort to avoid the real labor of thinking." Can someone rephrase this one, or simply explain it? I can't seem to understand it. Thank you.Oh wait. I think it means. - A man will go to every expedient to avoid the real labor thinking? Right? Meh..

An "expedient" is a means of attaining a goal, usually in a way that is considered somewhat improper, immoral, or sacrificial. Basically, the statement means that people will use anything they can to avoid having to think too hard.
