A Quotation from Edmund Burke

"From the general style of late publications of all sorts, one would be led to believe that your clergy in France were a sort of monsters, a horrible composition of superstition, ignorance, sloth, fraud, avarice and tyranny. But is this true?"

Burke, Edmund, Reflections on the Late Revolution in France, 1790
