When men do not have healthy notions of the Divinity, false ideas supplant them, just as in bad times one uses counterfeit money when there is no good money.
From Voltaire
It is not enough to conquer; one must learn to seduce.
It is better to risk saving a guilty man than to condemn an innocent one.
To hold a pen is to be at war.
Perfection is attained by slow degrees; it requires the hand of time.
We are rarely proud when we are alone.
Love is a canvas furnished by nature and embroidered by imagination.
We cannot always oblige; but we can always speak obligingly.
No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thinking.
It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong.
