#danton
At the time when the death-sentence of Louis XVI was passed, Robespierre had eighteen months to live, Danton fifteen, Vergniaud nine, Marat five months and three weeks, and Lepelletier-Saint-Fargeau one day! Brief and terrible was the breath of life in those days.
— Victor Hugo, Ninety-Three

todays the death day of my favorite historical figure, camille desmoulins.
and that slut danton.
fatal purity is wild y'all like one moment scurr will be calling robespierre a “hypocritical and self righteous prig” and the next she’ll be gushing over how great danton is
