“Come brave Diderot, intrepid d’Alembert, ally yourselves; … overwhelm the fanatics and the knaves, destroy the insipid declamations, the miserable sophistries, the lying history … the absurdities without number; do not let those who have sense to be subjected to those who have none; and the generation which is being born will owe to us its reason and liberty.”
