Montesquieu is best known as the originator of the concept of separation of powers between the three branches of government, the executive, judicial, and legislative, which forms the basis of the US Constitution. He was most often quoted by the founding fathers during the debate over the Constitution, with the exception of the Bible. The infamous forgery "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion" was an almost word for word copy of a French play "Conversations in Hell Between Montesquieu and Machiavelli"
