What is Quignard.La raison about?

Latron is the only thinker that ancient Rome produced. While Lucretius or Seneca owed everything to Greece, Latron refuted the thinking of the Greeks. He said: "Rational thinking is perhaps the most sentimental thing that has been done". He said: "I know no remedy for wisdom". Finally, he coined the phrase: "No one is good voluntarily". Marcus Porcius Latron was born in Cordoba in 696 AD. As a child he lost his memory for six days. He composed arguments and speeches, none of which have been preserved. A blow from a heifer's hoof nearly killed him, so that at the age of forty he became strange. He advocated veiling women's faces. He loved hunting with a stake more than anything else. Exiled by Augustus to Spain, he killed himself in 4BC.Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
