Yes, I saw it somewhere, too. I cannot remember to whom it was attributed, if to Robespierre or Saint-Just. So is it another false quote to our collection?
*jumps into subject* It's usually attributed to Dumas. I think he even made it in the pink pages of the Larousse dictionary of the "Mots historiques" section for it (!). Well, what an accomplishment -- though that section is obviously partially made of attributed and randomly collected quotes. Ah, les mots historiques...
