0 Not that I know of. He had a "high forhead", meaning about half bald from the front on back. Then, I believe, he went very nearly bald with hair only on the sides of his head.

0No. No special meaning. 00It's a line from a movie -- 00The Princess Diaries00: "Voltaire... hair... personally, I'd rather learn about Voltaire."02br
00I have not seen the movie, so I can only guess that the charm of this line, if there really is any, is due to the context in which it occurs. It's one of those situations where "You had to be there".02br

It doesn't have special meaning. The quote is really just a character trying to change the subject. You see, everyone was going on and on about her friend (the princess in the movie) went from curly hair to straight hair. The character was really saying, "Voltaire or hair... let's stop talking about her hair and start focusing on class."

I believe It refers to the politician, Voltaire, He looks in to the idea of tolerance and freedom to do as you wish, a famous quote of his is 'I detest what you say, but defend to the death of me your right to say it', not 100% sure but I think its right
