More from The Friends of Voltaire (1906)
- A Platonic friendship is perhaps only possible when one or other of the Platonists is in love with a third person.
- I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
- Only a little, it might be. But if every man did the little he could — what a different world!
- There is always more goodness in the world than there appears to be, because goodness is of its very nature modest and retiring.
