Massi',facciamo #storia spiando nel boudoir. #Korngold sostiene che Robespierre amasse l'umanità solo in astratto. Infatti..me lo immagino mentre scrive il cahier de doleance dei ciabattini analfabeti astrattamente partecipe..#shit

1778.#Robespierre incontra #Rousseau .
Il vecchio ha forgiato le armi il giovane le userà con maggiore abilità e convinzione di ogni altro suo contemporaneo.
