François de la Rochefoucauld
|
François VI, Duc de La Rochefoucauld, Prince de Marcillac (15 September 1613 – 17 March 1680) was a noted French author of maxims and memoirs. The view of human conduct his writings describe has been summed up by the words "everything is reducible to the motive of self-interest," though the term "gently cynical" has also been applied. Born in Paris in the Rue des Petits Champs, at a time when the royal court was oscillating between aiding the nobility and threatening it, he was considered an exemplar of the accomplished 17th-Century nobleman. Until 1650, he bore the title of Prince de Marcillac. Contents

Asked by george - Fri Feb 27 15:10:24 2009 - - 2 Answers - Comments A. Absolutely, when a person tries too hard to impress others they can end up making things up when they don't know the answer, thus sounding stupid. Or they just can't take advice from others, and are so stubborn that they know everything that they can't listen to someone who may know more.
