Such a funny piece.  Pangloss does not deserve to called the Great Philosopher.  "Pangloss deceived me cruelly, after all, when he told me that all is for the best in this world," says Cundegonde.  Pangloss tells her this as a response to her being raped and stabbed.  What kind of great thinker offers that advice to a suffering woman?  "This is all for the best.  For if there is a volcano beneath Lisbon, then it cannot be anywhere else; for it is impossible for things to be elsewhere than where they are.  "   ..........................................................................................  Obviously.
