Notable quotes

“A corrupted and weakened community breaks down in immense catastrophes; the iron harrow of revolutions crushes men like the clods of the field; but, in the blood-stained furrows germinates a new generation, and the soul aggrieved, believes again.”
— Reported in J. de Finod (ed.) A Thousand Flashes of French Wit, Wisdom, and Wickedness (New York: D. Appleton and Co, 1902) p. 46
