If God has made us in his image, we have returned him the favor.
[Si Dieu nous a fait à son image, nous le lui avons bien rendu.]

Voltaire (1694-1778) French writer [pseud. of Francois-Marie Arouet]
Notebooks (c.1735-c.1750)

Alt. trans. "If God created us in his own image we have more than reciprocated."
