Overview

RÃ(c)flexions ou sentences et maximes morales, commonly known as simply RÃ(c)flexions, is a collection of philosophical and psychological reflections by François de La Rochefoucauld, a prominent figure in the French aristocracy and literature of the 17th century. These maxims, brief and insightful observations on human nature and morality, offer a cynical yet penetrating view of the human condition. Known for their elegant prose and concise expression, La Rochefoucauld's reflections explore themes of self-love, virtue, vice, ambition, and the complex motivations that drive human behavior. This work remains a cornerstone of French classical literature, offering timeless wisdom and enduring relevance for readers interested in philosophy, psychology, and the subtleties of human interaction.
