Et leur conclusion fut, que vous feriez bien, De prendre moins de soin des actions des autres, Et de vous mettre, un peu, plus en peine des vôtres. Qu'on doit se regarder soi-même, un fort long temps, Avant que de songer à condamner les gens

Tartuffe: For heaven's sake! Before you speak, I pray you take this handkerchief. Dorine: Whatever do you mean? Tartuffe: Cove your bosom. I can't bear to see it. Such pernicious sights give rise to sinful thoughts. Dorine: You're mighty susceptible to temptation then! The flesh must make a great impression on you! I really don't know why you should get so excited. I can't say that I'm so easily roused. I could see you naked from head to foot and your whole carcass wouldn't tempt me in the least.
We must eat to live, and not live to eat.
