Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains
Genevan philosopher, writer and composer. His political philosophy influenced the progress of the Enlightenment throughout Europe, as well as aspects of the French Revolution.
We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
Death and life have their determined appointments; riches and honors depend upon heaven
Forgiveness is commendable, but apply not ointment to the wound of an oppressor
The life given us, by nature is short; but the memory of a well-spent life is eternal
Let the beauty of what you love be what you do
Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle
