Bernard Le Bovier De Fontenelle Quotes
But I've Never Yet Heard Anyone Say That The Moon Was Inhabited," She Replied, "except As A Fantasy And A Delusion."
"This May Be A Fantasy Too," I Answered. "I Don't Take Sides In These Matters Except As One Does In Civil Wars, When The Uncertainty Of What Might Happen Makes One Maintain Contacts On The Opposite Side And Make Arrangements Even With The Enemy. As For Me, Although I See The Moon As Inhabited, I Still Live On Good Terms With Those Who Don't Believe It, And I Keep Myself In A Position Where I Could Shift To Their Opinion Honorably If They Gained The Upper Hand.
