Every time that I fill a high office, I create a hundred discontented men and an ingrate.


As quoted in: Voltaire, Le Siècle de Louis XIV (1751), ch.26


Every time that I fill a high office, I create a hundred discontented men and an ingrate.

Every time that I fill a high office, I create a hundred discontented men and an ingrate.

Every time that I fill a high office, I create a hundred discontented men and an ingrate.

Every time that I fill a high office, I create a hundred discontented men and an ingrate.
