Additional quotes by Denis Diderot

I don't think much of these eccentrics. Some people turn them into familiar acquaintances, even friends. Once a year they interest me, when I meet them, because their character stands in contrast to others and they break that fastidious uniformity which our education, our social conventions, and our habitual proprieties have introduced.

Are convents so essential to the constitution of a state? Did Jesus Christ institute monks and nuns? Can the Church really not do without them? What need has the bridegroom of so many foolish virgins, and what need has the human race of so many victims?

Αφήνω τις σκέψεις μου να καλπάζουν σε τέλεια εγκατάλειψη, να τρέχουν αχαλίνωτες ν’ ακολουθήσουν την πρώτη σοφή ή ανόητη ιδέα που μου έρχεται στο μυαλό, όπως αυτοί οι ξεδιάντροποι νεαροί που τρέχουν πίσω από ένα κουτοκόριτσο με χαριτωμένο προσωπάκι ενώ το ξέρουν καλά πως θα την αφήσουν σε λιγάκι για κάποια άλλη. Έτσι είναι όλοι τους, κολλάνε στην κάθε μια αλλά πουθενά δεν στεριώνουν. Στη δική μου περίπτωση οι σκέψεις μου αντικαθιστούν τις πόρνες όλου του κόσμου.
