I think it's "bravisimo" in French.

Robespierre supposedly became a radical revolutionary because his thesis was rejected by Lavoisier. You know what happened to Lavoisier. Be careful whose spelling you criticize.

I actually did check it before I posted, and he said it, but they weren't his last words; it's what he said when they handed down the sentence. They carried out the execution the next day. That was close enough to not really change the sense of the story.

Oh, wait, that thread goes on the explain that he never said it. But he did correct the mistakes! Not close enough, but good enough!

So, the "three spelling mistakes" wasn't in his Wikipedia entry when this was first posted, but it is now. So, I'm assuming it is true.

For the record, I didn't edit the entry.

After reading that whole Twitter thread I don't know who to believe, but that Kloczko guy is sure persistent.
