PIERRE LOUIS ROEDERER
French economist, politician and Jacobin (1754 - 1835)

True purity of taste is a quality of the mind; it is a feeling
which can, with little difficulty, be acquired by the refinement
of intelligence; whereas purity of manners is the result of wise
habits, in which all the interests of the soul are mingled and in
harmony with the progress of intelligence. That is why the
harmony of good taste and of good manners is more common than the
existence of taste without manners, or of manners without taste.
