Unde fames homini vetitorum tanta ciborum,
Audetis vesci, genus ô mortale? quod oro,
Ne facite; et monitis animos advertite nostris.

“Je n'ai pas la témérité de prétendre riformer le genre humain, mais assez de courage pour dire la vérité, sans me foucier des criailleries de ceux qui la redoutent, parce qu'ils ont intérét de tromper notre espèce, ou de la laisser dans des erreurs dont ils font eux-mêmes les dupes."

Diderot, Code de la Nature.

“ It is an unpopular attempt to attack prejudiceës estab’ish'd by time and habit, and secured by the corruptions of luxurious life. It is equally unpleasant to attempt the reformation of abuseës, without the least profpect of success: yet there is a secret pleasure in pleading the caule of humanity and helpless innocence.”

Doctor Gregorys Comparative view.
