About Jean de La Fontaine: Jean de La Fontaine is known above all for his Fables, which provided a model for subsequent fabulists across Europe and numerous alternative versions in France, and in French regional languages.
Be aware, so long as you live, of judging men by their outward appearance.
Nothing weighs on us so heavily as a secret.
Beware, so long as you live, of judging men by their outward appearance.
There is nothing useless to men of sense.
People must help one another; it is nature's law.
Sadness flies away on the wings of time.
Patience and time do more than strength or passion.
By the work one knows the workman.
