COLETTE
Avec l'object de mes amours,
Rien ne m'afflige, tout m'enchante;
Sans cesse il rit, toujours je chante:
C'est una chaine d'heureux jours.

Quand on sait bien aimer, que la vie est charmante!
Tel, au milieu des fleurs qui brillent sur son cours,
Un doux ruisseau coule et serpente.

  • @Mishiak4 (translator)Rousseau was not exactly obsessed by Voltaire,he admired him throughout his youth (he is 20 yrs his junior) After his speech on the origin of inequality between men, Voltaire opens the hostilities, he criticizes his theory then accede, he was worthless, son of wealthy he went to prestigious schools, nothing more and his so-called philosophy was only his contemporarie's rearranged to make it appear like his, Rousseau only saw what man was hiding behind Monsieur de Voltaire.
