Victor Hugo Quotes
In Churchmen, Luxury Is Wrong, Except In Connection With Representations And Ceremonies. It Seems To Reveal Habits Which Have Very Little That Is Charitable About Them. An Opulent Priest Is A Contradiction. The Priest Must Keep Close To The Poor. Now, Can One Come In Contact Incessantly Night And Day With All This Distress, All These Misfortunes, And This Poverty, Without Having About One's Own Person A Little Of That Misery, Like The Dust Of Labor? Is It Possible To Imagine A Man Near A Brazier Who Is Not Warm? Can One Imagine A Workman Who Is Working Near A Furnace, And Who Has Neither A Singed Hair, Nor Blackened Nails, Nor A Drop Of Sweat, Nor A Speck Of Ashes On His Face? The First Proof Of Charity In The Priest, In The Bishop Especially, Is Poverty.
