First published in 1665, the Maxims of François de La Rochefoucauld are among the most quotable observations ever made on human nature. In short, sharp sentences he exposes the self-love and vanity behind many of our virtues, observing for instance that we all have strength enough to bear the misfortunes of others. Witty, worldly and timeless.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout this leather-bound edition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach copy is bound by hand in genuine leather over sturdy boards, with decorative tooling and gold-tone foil lettering on the spine.
