Welcome to our site | Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire
There are truths which are not for all men, nor for all times.
Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy the mad daughter of a wise mother.
What most persons consider as virtue, after the age of 40 is simply a loss of energy.
I know of no great men except those who have rendered great service to the human race.
The wicked can have only accomplices, the voluptuous have companions in debauchery, self-seekers have associates, the politic assemble the factions, the typical idler has connections, princes have courtiers. Only the virtuous have friends.
If God did not exist it would be necessary to invent Him. But all nature cries aloud that He does exist that there is a supreme intelligence, an immense power, an admirable order, and everything teaches us our own dependence on it.
A multitude of laws in a country is like a great number of physicians, a sign of weakness and malady.
The great consolation in life is to say what one thinks.
Originality is nothing by judicious imitation. The most original writers borrowed one from another.
Needless to say since Christ's expiation not one single Christian has been known to sin, or die.
