Chaos Vs. Order

“We are all priest…. [H]ere we are all of the same mind, and we don’t understand what you are up to with your marks” (Voltaire 549) The unique significance of this quote is that it states that WE all are the same. Its reminds me of the story that Swift wrote when he talked about the different cultures such as the yahoos and the horses how they had their own unique group they have their own ways of running things although they had their ignorance they still had their own culture that they follow. Something that they are use to. In Candide it was so content that they didn’t need gold and possession it was almost like a utopia in their world. They had everything they needed and it was as if that they knew what they needed which was nothing. What Voltaire did with this text was picking on people showing us the reader that if they were not like him and didn’t do as he they were different and needed to be made fun of. He was allowing us to see what he thought through his words. Voltaire is a man who allows us to see that the meaning of We is standing for all of us every ethnic background. He allows us to see that although we are different we are all the same in one way or another.
