Blessed is the man who has the gift of making friends; for it is one of God’s best gifts. It involves many things, but above all the power of going out of one’s own self and seeing and appreciating whatever is noble and loving in another.

Denis Diderot

Denis Diderot

Denis Diderot (October 5, 1713 - July 31, 1784) was a French philosopher and writer. He was a prominent figure in the Enlightenment, and editor-in-chief of the famous Encyclopédie .

Diderot also contributed to literature, notably with Jacques le fataliste et son maître (Jacques the Fatalist and His Master), which emulated Laurence Sterne in challenging conventions regarding novels, their structure and content, while also examining philosophical ideas about free will. Diderot is also known as the author of the essay, "Regrets on Parting with My Old Dressing Gown," upon which many an article and sermon about consumer desire has been based.
