Monsieur l’abbé, je déteste ce que vous écrivez, mais je donnerai ma vie pour que vous puissiez continuer à écrire.

English:

Monsieur l’abbé, I detest what you write, but I would give my life to make it possible for you to continue to write.

Voltaire, writing under Pseudonym.

“Monsieur l’abbé, I detest what you write, but I would give my life to make it possible for you to continue to write.”
