"Sin is a gravitation."
"It is nothing to die. It is frightful not to live."
"Equality, citizens, is not the whole of society on a level, a society of tall blades of grass and small oaks, or a number of entangled jealousies. It is, legally speaking, every aptitude having the same opportunity for a career; politically all consciences having the same right. Equality has an organ, gratuitous and compulsory education. We must begin with the right to the alphabet."
"He never went out without a book under his arm, and he often came back with two."
