Ce livre 'doit déplaire aux dévots, aux libertins, aux philosophes ; il doit choquer les femmes galantes, et scandaliser les honnêtes femmes. A qui plaira-t-il donc ? Peut-être à moi seul ; mais à coup sûr il ne plaira médiocrement à personne.'.

I hear this is maybe like a less shitty version of Pamela.

First words

"Il faut vous fuir, mademoiselle, je le sens bien: j'aurais dû beaucoup moins attendre; ou plutôt il fallait ne vous voir jamais".

Quotations
Information from the French Common Knowledge. Edit to localize it to your language.
"Je goûte le plaisir délicieux d'aimer purement. Cet état fait le bonheur de ma vie; mon humeur et ma santé s'en ressentent; à peine puis-je en concevoir un plus doux, et l'accord de l'amour et de l'innocence me semble être le paradis sur terre".

"N'allons donc pas chercher dans les livres des principes et des règles que nous trouvons plus sûrement au-dedans de nous".

"D'ailleurs ces études énervent l'âme, la jettent dans la mollesse, et lui ôtent tout son réassort".

"vous folâtrez, même avec moi, comme auparavant".
