...C'est ce que sentirent si bien les anciens législateurs et ceux à qui la vénération et la reconnaissance décernèrent autrefois le titre glorieux de sage: tous leurs efforts tendaient propager parmi le peuple qu'ils étaient ap-pelés à instruire des maximes courtes et pleines de sens, résultats d'une longue suite d'expériences; des exhortations fortes à la vertu, des avertissements énergiques que le simple bon sens pouvait comprendre et la mémoire la plus faible retenir sans peine [...] Je n'ai pas l'orgueil de croire que les pen-sées et maximes que je livre aujourd'hui au public doivent un jour se répandre parmi le peuple. Puisse une seule d'entre elles être utile, une fois, à un seul de mes concitoyens, et je m'applaudirai toute ma vie de les avoir publiées !...
