Voltaire
  • When it is a question of money, everybody is of the same religion.

  • The truths of religion are never so well understood as by those who have lost the power of reason.

  • To the living we owe respect, but to the dead we owe only the truth.

  • He is a hard man who is only just, and a sad one who is only wise.

  • He who is not just is severe, he who is not wise is sad.
