Friday Philosophy

A lovely sentiment from the author of many maxims, Francois de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680):

"It appears that nature has hid at the bottom of our hearts talents and abilities unknown to us. It is only the passions that have the power of bringing them to light, and sometimes give us views more true and more perfect than art could possibly do."
