More From Francois De La Rochefoucauld

Screwing things up is a virtue. being correct is never the point. i have an almost fanatically correct assistant, and by the time she re-spells my words and corrects my punctuation, i can't read what i wrote. being right can stop all the momentum of a very interesting idea.

There is no one without faults, not even men of god. they are men of god not because they are faultless, but because they know their faults, they strive against them, they do not hide them, and are ever ready to correct themselves.

At the bottom of religious persecution is the doctrine of self-defence; that is to say, the defence of the soul. if the founder of christianity had plainly said: 'it is not necessary to believe in order to be saved; it is only necessary to do, and he who really loves his fellow-men, who is kind, honest, just and charitable, is to be forever blest' - if he had only said that, there would probably have been but little persecution.
