Famous quotes containing the word marie:
“It was not sufficient for the disquiet of our minds that we disputed at the end of seventeen hundred years upon the articles of our own religion, but we must likewise introduce into our quarrels those of the Chinese.

—Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
