@ “NEVER ALLOW YOURSELVES TO FORGET THAT IT IS FOR THEIR OWN SAKES AND NOT FOR YOURS THAT ALL THOSE WISE LAWGIVERS HAVE FORCED YOU INTO YOUR PRESENT UNNATURAL AND RIGID MOLDS. AND AS EVIDENCE OF THIS, I NEED ONLY PRODUCE ALL OUR POLITICAL, CIVIL, AND RELIGIOUS INSTITUTIONS. EXAMINE THEM THOROUGHLY, AND EITHER I AM VERY MUCH MISTAKEN OR YOU WILL FIND THAT MANKIND HAS BEEN FORCED TO BOW, CENTURY AFTER CENTURY, BENEATH A MERE HANDFUL OF SCOUNDRELS HAS CONSPIRED, IN EVER AGE, TO IMPOSE UPON IT. BEWARE OF THE MAN WHO WANTS TO SET THINGS IN ORDER. SETTING THINGS IN ORDER ALWAYS INVOLVES ACQUIRING MASTERY OVER OTHERS — BY TYING THEM HAND AND FOOT.“ DENIS DIDEROT DENIS DIDEROT WAS A FRENCH PHILOSOPHER, ART CRITIC, AND WRITER, BEST KNOWN FOR SERVING AS CO-FOUNDER, CHIEF EDITOR, AND CONTRIBUTOR TO THE ENCYCLOPÉDIE ALONG WITH JEAN LE ROND D’ALEMBERT.
