Thanks for the quote. I have read Voltaire, but either don't remember reading this, or was unable to put it into context.
We must continue to tend "one's own garden", while we sharpen our plowshares into swords.
I read Voltaire a generation ago in High School and College. America was still America then and before the rapid march to authoritarianism and fascism.
