Rene Descartes chose to live in Holland for 20 years of his life because it was in Holland where he was able to focus on his work and concentrate on the task that he was seeking to accomplish. Holland essentially provided him the luxury of being able to live a quiet life as opposed to the hustle and bustle that he was accustomed to pursuing.
