Corruption of the best becomes the worst

Korruption

The first sign of corruption in a society that is still alive is that the end justifies the means

Korruption

A poor man with nothing in his belly needs hope, illusion, more than bread.

Illusion

The wish to pray is a prayer in itself

Little things seem nothing, but they give peace, like those meadow flowers which individually seem odorless but all together perfume the air.

Purity is not imposed upon us as though it were a kind of punishment, it is one of those mysterious but obvious conditions of that supernatural knowledge of ourselves in the Divine, which we speak of as faith. Impurity does not destroy this knowledge, it slays our need for it.

And what have you laymen made of hell? A kind of penal servitude for eternity, on the lines of your convict prisons on earth, to which you condemn in advance all the wretched felons your police have hunted from the beginning -- ''enemies of society,'' as you call them. You're kind enough to include the blasphemers and the profane. What proud or reasonable man could stomach such a notion of God's justice? And when you find that notion inconvenient it's easy enough for you to put it on one side. Hell is not to love any more, Madame. Not to love any more!
