Quotes by Sbastien-Roch Nicolas de Chamfort
| Most of those who make collections of verse or epigram are like men eating cherries or oysters they choose out the best at first, and end by eating all. |
| Most of today's books have an air of having been written in one day from books read the night before. |
| All that I've learned, I've forgotten. The little I still know, I've guessed. |
| The most wasted day of all is that on which we have not laughed. |
