Here's mine:
"It had been in Montmor's academy the Huygens had topped Galileo. And now Montmor was more certain than ever that the scientific glory of France -- and his own reputation as ulitmate patron of knowledge -- would continue to be made within the wall of his palatial home."
-Blood Work: A Tale of Medicine and Murder in the Scientific Revolution by Holly Tucker, p. 86
