: So... you're saying Voltaire has a better grasp of the principles behind the
: US Constitution than contemporary American soccer moms?

: Who'da thunk it?

Actually, Voltaire did not say that, the phrase was coined by Evelyn Beatrice Hall and then attributed to Voltaire because the evil history-rewriting patriarchy couldn't stand to attribute such a good quote to a woman. (Okay, it might also have been because she wrote it in a biography about Voltaire. And she did create it to summarize Voltaire's own opinions. But the patriarchy is still evil dammit!!) :P
