Oh, I'm sorry, the names are so similar. I happen to know this quote, so no tangibles where broken  (kidding).
Jean-Jacques Rousseau, 18th Century writer of Romanticism whose ideals happened to plant many seeds of the American Revolution.
Here is one out of a book I recently read (and greatly enjoyed):
"From the smallest necessity to the highest religious abstraction, from the wheel to the skyscraper, everything we are and everything we have comes from one attribute of man - the function of his reasoning mind."

Hey, wait a minute. I wring my tiny grey cells more closely than Hercules Poirot ever did over your infernally inscrutable quotation, while you, you johnny-come-lately genius, trounce my proffered quote in a trice. I COULD have picked one that only Ivas or a god would recognize...
Hrumph, I am mortified. It is also quite clear you take to swimming my blood as it were only water. LOL. Good going!
As to your NEW punition for my arrogance, my suffering has only now recommenced...
