More from Voltaire
- Le dîner du comte de Boulainvilliers (1767): Deuxième Entretien
If God has created us in His image, we have more than returned the compliment.
Love is a canvas furnished by nature and embroidered by imagination.
This body which called itself and which still calls itself the Holy Roman Empire was in no way holy, nor Roman, nor an empire.
