Famous quotes containing the word marie:

    Fanaticism is to superstition what delirium is to fever, and what rage is to anger. The man visited by ecstasies and visions, who takes dreams for realities is an enthusiast; the man who supports his madness with murder is a fanatic.
    Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
