High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Nicolas Chamfort (6 April 1741 - 13 April 1794) was a French writer, best known for his witty epigrams and aphorisms. He was secretary of Louis XIV's sister, and of the Jacobin club. He was born Nicolas-Sébastien Roch, Clermont-Ferrand, Puy-de-Dôme, according to a baptismal certificate found among his papers, to a grocer named Nicolas. A journey to Paris resulted in the boy's obtaining a bursary at the Collège des Grassins (a secondary school). He worked hard, although one of his most contemptuous epigrams reads: Ce que j'ai appris je ne le sais plus; le peu que je sais encore, je l'ai deviné ("What I learned I no longer know; the little I still know, I guessed"). When the principal of the College promised Chamfort a benefice, he replied that he could not accept because he preferred honour to honours, j'aime l'honneur et non les honneurs. About this time he assumed the name of Chamfort.
