Moliere

Moliere
A wise man is superior to any insults which can be put upon him, and the best reply to unseemly behavior is patience and moderation.
Moliere
The smallest errors are always the best. [Fr., Les plus courtes erreurs sont toujours les meilleures.]

Moliere
One cannot but mistrust a prospect of felicity: one must enjoy it before one can believe in it.

All the satires of the stage should be viewed without discomfort. They are public mirrors, where we are never to admit that we seeourselves one admits to a fault when one is scandalized by its censure.
Moliere
