Also, and most often in modern usage, an antiquarian is a person who deals with or collects rare and ancient "antiquarian books". More narrowly, the term is often used for those who studied history with special attention to "antiques", meaning ancient objects of art or science as physical traces of the past.

I found your exact quotation attributed to Voltaire in many places, however you might consider that he did not really say it. The following excerpt is from a biography of Voltaire.
