Original Note:
It is a common error to attribute the quote to Voltaire. It’s disingenuous to imply that persons who quote it as Voltaire favor white supreme or pedophilia It is more likely circulating because the quote contains a “true statement” and is found in commonly misatributed quotes: https://en.m.wikiquote.org/wiki/Voltaire
