Frances influence on Western philosophy cannot be understated, from the Age of Enlightenment through to the founding of modern philosophy.
Many of these quotes have as much resonance today as they did when they were first coined.
Superb for dipping in and out of, there are more than a few thoughts in this book worth memorising, and even more that are sure to inspire.

Montesquieu (1689 1755) was born in Aquitaine, and his writing had a huge influence on political systems. Voltaire (1694 1778), a Parisian, was one of the founders of the French Enlightenment movement. Born in Langres, Denis Diderot (1713 1784) was a writer and another important figure in the Age of Enlightenment.
Gaston Bachelard (1884 1962) was born in Bar-sur-Aube and went on to become an important scientific philosopher. Born in Geneva, Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712 1778) was a spearhead in the European Enlightenment movement. Blaise Pascal (1623 1662) was born in Clermont-Ferrand and is best remembered as a fideistic philosopher.
