Quotes by Francois de La Rochefoucauld

About Francois de La Rochefoucauld

François de La Rochefoucauld (1613-1680) was a French writer renowned for his maxims and moral reflections that offer a keen insight into human nature and society. Born into a noble family, he became a prominent figure in the literary circles of 17th-century France, using his sharp wit and observational prowess to critique the social norms of his time. His most famous work, "Réflexions ou sentences et maximes morales," remains influential for its elegant prose and psychological depth.

Our enemies' judgment about us is much closer to the truth than our own judgment of ourselves. – François de La Rochefoucauld
