"We swallow greedily any lie that flatters us, but we sip only little by little at a truth we find bitter." -- Denis Diderot (October 5, 1713 – July 31, 1784) was a French philosopher and writer. Born in Langres, Champagne, France in 1713, he was a prominent figure in what became known as the Enlightenment, and was the editor-in-chief of the famous Encyclopédie. Sat Mar 18 08:51:30 EST 2006
