Claude Adrien Helvetius Quotes Page 1 of 1Claude Adrien Helvetius February 26, 1715 - December 26, 1771 Nationality: French Category: Philosopher Subcategory: French Philosopher
| Genius is nothing but continued attention. | By annihilating the desires, you annihilate the mind. Every man without passions has within him no principle of action, nor motive to act. | Harsh counsels have no effect; they are like hammers, which are always repulsed by the anvil. | Discipline is simply the art of making the soldiers fear their officers more than the enemy. | Truth is the torch that gleams through the fog without dispelling it. |
