We offer up prayers to god only because we have made him after our own image. We treat him like a pasha, or a sultan, who is capable of being exasperated and appeased.
VoltaireWhen he to whom one speaks does not understand, and he who speaks himself does not understand, that is Metaphysics.
VoltaireEvery one should be his own physician. We ought to assist, and not to force nature. Eat with moderation...Nothing is good for the body but what we can digest. What medicine can procure digestion? Exercise. What will recruit strength? Sleep.
Voltaire
