Who are you to condemn anothe...

Who are you to condemn another's sin? He who condemns sin becomes part of it, espouses it.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

I don't think we can ever lea...

I don't think we can ever learn much from ultra-sensitive, shifty faces, skilled in disguise, that hide themselves in lust, as beasts hide to die.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

But I shall give less thought...

But I shall give less thought to the future, I shall work in the present. I feel such work is within my power. For I only succeed in small things, and when I am tried by anxiety, I am bound to say it is the small joys that release me.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

I can now see to the bottom o...

I can now see to the bottom of my own depths, there is nothing stopping my gaze, no obstacle is in the way. And there is nothing there.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

Rather than the obsession wit...

Rather than the obsession with impurity, you'd do better to fear the nostalgia for purity.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

All her life she [Chantal] ha...

All her life she [Chantal] had been carefully, heroically watching over mediocre beings who were hardly real, over things of no value.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

I have just discovered someth...

I have just discovered something I have always known: we can no more escape from one another than we can escape from God.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

Lust is a mysterious wound in...

Lust is a mysterious wound in the side of humanity; or rather, at the very source of its life! To confound this lust in man with that desire which unites the sexes is like confusing a tumor with the very organ which it devours, a tumor whose very deformity horribly reproduces the shape.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

Have you never been moved by ...

Have you never been moved by poor men's fidelity, the image of you they form in their simple minds? Why should you always talk of their envy, without understanding that what they ask of you is not so much your worldly goods, as something very hard to define, which they themselves can put no name to; yet at times it consoles their loneliness; a dream of splendor, of magnificence, a tawdry dream, a poor man's dream -and yet God blesses it!

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

What a cunning mixture of sen...

What a cunning mixture of sentiment, pity, tenderness, irony surrounds adolescence, what knowing watchfulness! Young birds on their first flight are hardly so hovered around.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

Justice in the hands of the p...

Justice in the hands of the powerful is merely a governing system like any other. Why call it justice?

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

The contradictions in Renan ,...

The contradictions in Renan , his feminine sensibility, coquetry, unavowed egotism, and sudden emotional outbursts, all indicate a soul deliberately using distraction as a means of evasion. The perpetual equivocation bears witness to God in the same way as the twisting and turning of a hunted animal indicates the presence of an unseen hunter.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

I know the compassion of othe...

I know the compassion of others is a relief at first. I don't despise it. But it can't quench pain, it slips through your soul as through a sieve. And when our suffering has been dragged from one pity to another, as from one mouth to another, we can no longer respect or love it.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

Faith is not a thing which on...

Faith is not a thing which one 'loses', we merely cease to shape our lives by it.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

Hell, madam, is to love no lo...

Hell, madam, is to love no longer.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

Purity is not imposed upon us...

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.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

The first sign of corruption ...

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

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

A thought which does not resu...

A thought which does not result in an action is nothing much, and an action which does not proceed from a thought is nothing at all.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

It is the perpetual dread of ...

It is the perpetual dread of fear, the fear of fear, that shapes the face of a brave man.

Georges Bernanos 56 quotes

What does the truth matter? Haven't we mothers all given our sons a taste for lies, lies which from the cradle upwards lull them, reassure them, send them to sleep: lies as soft and warm as a breast!
