So there is nothing that I find more base than specious piety's dishonest face. In Candide, Voltaire makes use of several characters to voice his opinion mocking philosophical optimism. On page 1594, Candide is asking a gentleman about whether everything is for the best in the physical world as well as the moral universe. The man replies:...I believe nothing of the sort. I find that everything goes wrong in our world; that nobody knows his place ...
