Pàgina 71 - And he saith unto him, -Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow: wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
Pàgina 398 - I will make no attempt to reconcile them. I will simply submit my will as has to be done in respect to all the other questions of the faith. I am not a theologian : it is not my part to decide on such matters. And God does not ask me to understand. He asks me to submit my will and intelligence, and I will do so.
Pàgina 173 - ... strength in conflict with weakness. " ' Permit me a familiar comparison. When a man is condemned to struggle against a woman, if that woman is not the most degraded of beings, she may defy him with impunity. She tells him, " Strike ! but you will disgrace yourself, and you will not conquer me.
Pàgina 217 - ... incendiary Journal on the 14th, and in the Times on the 16th. He there exults in the coup d'etat as having been also a coup de grace to all Socialists, Revolutionists, and Bandits throughout France and Europe — a sufficient reason, he fairly adds, for all honest men to rejoice. On the one side he lauds the Dictatorship ' of a Prince who has rendered for three years incomparable services to the cause of order and Catholicism.
Pàgina 108 - I defy any man to find a single word fallen from my pen or from my lips which has not been devoted to the cause of freedom. Freedom: ah! I can speak without seeking fine expressions. She has been the idol of my soul; if I have anything to reproach myself with, it is that I have loved her too much, that I have loved her as one loves when one is young, without measure, without limit. But I neither reproach myself for this, nor do I regret it; I will continue to serve Freedom, to love her always, to...
Pàgina 398 - he said. ' We are always told that the Pope is a father. Eh bien ! — there are many fathers who demand our adherence to things very far from- our inclination and contrary to our ideas. In such a case the son struggles while he can — he tries hard to persuade his father — discusses and talks the matter over with him ; but when all is done, when he sees no possibility of succeeding, but receives a distinct refusal, he submits. I shall do the same.
Pàgina 58 - Catholics — should we consent to be but fools and cowards ? Are we to acknowledge ourselves such bastards, so degenerated from the condition of our fathers, that we must give up our reason to rationalism, deliver our conscience to the university, our dignity and our freedom into the hands of law-makers whose hatred for the freedom of the Church is equalled only by their profound ignorance of her rights and her doctrines? What! because we are of those who confess, do they suppose that we rise from...
Pàgina 374 - his charming and beloved child entered that library which all his friends know so well, and said to him, ' I am fond of everything around me. I love pleasure, wit, society and its amusements ; I love my family, my studies, my companions, my youth, my life, my country : but I love God better than all, and I desire to give myself to him.
Pàgina 107 - Radicalism is nothing more than an exaggeration of despotism; and never had despotism taken a more odious form. Liberty is reasonable and voluntary toleration; radicalism is the absolute intolerance, which is arrested only by the impossible. Liberty imposes unusual sacrifices on none; radicalism cannot put up with a thought, a word, even a prayer, contrary to its will. Liberty consecrates the right of minorities; radicalism absorbs and annihilates them. To say everything in one word, liberty is respect...
