Talk:La Hire

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

About La Hire, the main article (in English) specifies that "La Hire" is still used to denote a character prone to anger. I would like to see backing info on that: as a native French speaker I know the word "ire" which means anger (same root as in "irate" in English) but never heard about "La hire" used as described. Please substantiate this claim. Best regards 201.199.84.50 18:22, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

I am curious about what evidence exists to support the claim that La Hire was a 'devout Atheist'. No citation is offered in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.146.172.123 (talk) 17:12, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
