I would rather be a man of paradoxes than a man of prejudices
Genevan philosopher, writer and composer. His political philosophy influenced the progress of the Enlightenment throughout Europe, as well as aspects of the French Revolution.
All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone
Beware of false knowledge; it is more dangerous than ignorance
Virtue pardons the wicked, as the sandal-tree perfumes the axe which strikes it
The heart is like a musical instrument of many strings, all the chords of which require putting in harmony
Nothing in life is to be feared it is only to be understood
The superior man understands what is right; the inferior man understands what will sell
