You are always on the right side when you are with those who suffer pe — Léon Bloy

"Of the truths which embarrass him he thinks it better to remain unaware."

"One sees the worlds evil accurately only by exaggerating it."

"Tu seras invendable à perpétuité, lInvendable, dans tes livres aussi bien que dans ta personne, et ainsi se réalisera tout à fait la séparation, naturellement désirée par toi, davec les vendeurs et les gens à vendre."

"Ah! The happy ones of this world who are assured their daily bread—that is, all the things necessary to bodily life—and who, not wishing to know Jesus, have never for one single instant had the idea of suffering for their brothers, of sacrificing themselves for the wretched: ah! indeed! such people are assuredly well qualified to judge me and to reproach me for not having what the world calls dignity!"

"Unhappy writer, you had dreamt of winning souls and you have won nothing but ears!"

"There is only one tragedy in the end, not to have been a saint."
