Leon Bourgeois Zitate

Deutsche Übersetzung

Menschliche Leidenschaften sind wie die Naturkräfte ewig. es geht nicht darum, ihre Existenz zu leugnen, sondern sie zu bewerten und zu verstehen. Wie die Kräfte der Natur können sie dem absichtlichen Willen des Menschen unterworfen werden und dazu gebracht werden, im Einklang mit der Vernunft zu arbeiten.
