"This is the best of all possible worlds."

― Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz

Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz was a 17th-century German philosopher whose ideas of 'best of all possible worlds' was a landmark attempt to solve all of the world's evils.

Originally published in 1710, 'Essays on Theodicy' was one of Leibniz most well-known works and was the only book by Leibniz to be published during his lifetime. It was the first work to introduce the term 'theodicy.' Leibniz sought to provide a new, optimistic approach to curing all of the world's evils. He claimed that human free will, against God's true goodness, was the root cause of the world's evil.
