Description
Reflections; Or, Sentences and Moral Maxims is a collection of wise phrases and advisory maxims that offer insight into human nature. Written by Francois Duc De La Rochefoucauld, these pithy sayings were honed through experience in the French court.
The author's even-handed approach to humanity is reflected in his maxims, which are both witty and profound. While he neither praises nor condemns humanity, he offers a nuanced perspective on human nature. This collection of maxims has been carefully curated by admirers, including J. W. Willis Bund and J. Hain Friswell.
Published with annotations, this edition provides a unique insight into the author's thoughts on morality and human behaviour. With 80 pages of insightful sayings, Reflections; Or, Sentences and Moral Maxims is a thought-provoking read for those interested in self-help and philosophical texts.
