While perusing Michael Kesterson’s corner of the Globe and Mail at work yesterday, she found what she believes could serve as the official, albeit “hidden” agenda of the liberal-left: a quote by François, duc de La Rochefoucauld. He’s French, of course. Here it is. Get ready.
“We try to make virtues out of the faults we have no wish to correct.”
—La Rochefoucauld
Voilà.
A quick review of La Rochefoucauld reveals that he has an extraordinarily pessimistic view of the world and of human motivation.
