Wish I had heard that years ago. Now I want to know more about M. de Jouvenal.

I LOVE La Rochefoucauld. "Quand les vices nous quittent, nous nous flattons que c'est nous qui les quittons." Lucky me--no diacritical marks needed. "When our vices leave us, we flatter ourselves that we are leaving them." But it's more condensed and pointed in the original.
