There is this horrible idea, beginning with Jean-Jacques Rousseau and
still going strong in college classrooms, that natural man is naturally

Levasseur were sent to orphanages at birth.) -- P.J. O'Rourke

than three minutes. -- P.J. O'Rourke

Anyone who thinks he has a better idea of what's good for people than
people do is a swine. -- P.J. O'Rourke
