Here are a few wise, witty, and funny quotes by Voltaire.
I love the fact when one reads Voltaire quotes, one is able to learn how to adapt to situations if you apply the message, or appreciate his humor from his crazed writings.
Enjoy :)

"Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd" - Voltaire
"Every man is guilty of all the good he did not do" - Voltaire
"Each player must accept the cards life deals him or her: but once they are in hand, he or she alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game" - Voltaire

Ha, each an everyone of these quotes could be applied to facebook! Well, except the one about Ice-Cream. lol

I love enriching content like this. Voltaire was a bit of a pessimist, right? I really like the first quote. I use it rather often, especially when I have philosophical discussions with my two sons.
