AUDACITY

The 1911 Encyclopaedia Britannica wrote that Danton stands out as a master of commanding phrase. One of his fierce sayings has become a proverb. Against the Duke of Brunswick and the invaders,

il nous faut de l’audace, et encore de l’audace, et toujours de l’audace

Georges Jacques Danton, 26 October 1759 – 5 April 1794

We need audacity, and yet more audacity, and always audacity!

Reminds one of Peter’s club,

The All-Joking, All-Drunken Synod of Fools and Jesters
