La Rochefoucauld a eu l'idée de composer un grand nombre de maximes, et surtout de les publier, dans le salon de Madeleine de Sablé où a été lancé le genre littéraire des maximes. On trouve d'ailleurs une certaine proximité de préoccupations dans les maximes de celle-ci et celles de La Rochefoucauld. Les maximes étaient discutées par Madeleine de Sablé ainsi que Jacques Esprit, la princesse de Guéméné, la duchesse de Schomberg, la comtesse de Maure ou Eléonore de Rohan. Les transformations effectuées à la version de l'édition de 1665 doivent beaucoup à ces amis influents.
Les Maximes ont été souvent réimprimées depuis les cinq éditions originales données du vivant de l'auteur. La sixième édition, publiée en 1693, contenait cinquante pensées nouvelles, dont l'authenticité ne fut pas contestée par la famille. Plusieurs éditions ultérieures furent faites avec peu de fidélité, en bouleversant l'ordre des pensées, en altérant et défigurant le texte, pour rendre le style plus grammatical.
