## QUOTATIONS:

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME I.

    Anguish of suspense made men even desire the arrival of enemies
    Dependent, like other emotions, on surroundings
    Devouring faith which is the making of martyrs and visionaries
    Freemasonry made up of those who possess
    Great ones of this world who make war
    I am learning my trade
    Insolent like all in authority
    Legitimized love always despises its easygoing brother
    Like all women, being very fond of indigestible things
    Presence of a woman, that sovereign inspiration
    Spirit of order and arithmetic in the business house
    Subtleties of expression to describe the most improper things
    Thin veneer of modesty of every woman
    Thrill of furious and bestial anger which urges on a mob to massacre

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME II.

    Chronic passion for cleaning
    Greatest shatterer of dreams who had ever dwelt on earth
    Hardly understand at all those bellicose ardors
    Key of a door
    Kiss of the man without a mustache
    Let us be indignant, or let us be enthusiastic
    Muscles of their faces have never learned the motions of laughter
    Resisted that feeling of comfort and relief
    Unconscious brutality which is so common in the country
    What is sadder than a dead house

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME III.

    Did wrong in doing her duty
    Don't talk about things you know nothing about
    Impenetrable night, thicker than walls and empty
    Love is always love, come whence it may
    "My God!  my God!" without believing, nevertheless, in God
    Pines, close at hand, seemed to be weeping
    Preserved in a pickle of innocence
    She was an ornament, not a home

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME IV.

    The warm autumn sun was beating down on the farmyard.  Under the grass,
    which had been cropped close by the cows, the earth soaked by recent
    rains, was soft and sank in under the feet with a soggy noise, and the
    apple trees, loaded with apples, were dropping their pale green fruit in
    the dark green grass.

    The servant, Rose, remained alone in the large kitchen, where the fire
    was dying out on the hearth beneath the large boiler of hot water.  From
    time to time she dipped out some water and slowly washed her dishes,
    stopping occasionally to look at the two streaks of light which the sun
    threw across the long table through the window, and which showed the
    defects in the glass.

    The fowls were lying on the steaming dunghill; some of them were
    scratching with one claw in search of worms, while the cock stood up
    proudly in their midst.  When he crowed, the cocks in all the neighboring
    farmyards replied to him, as if they were uttering challenges from farm
    to farm.

    Neither could there be any scruples about an unequal match between them,
    for in the country every one is very nearly equal; the farmer works with
    his laborers, who frequently become masters in their turn, and the female
    servants constantly become the mistresses of the establishments without
    its making any change in their life or habits.

    Is it not rather the touch of Love, of Love the Mysterious, who seeks
    constantly to unite two beings, who tries his strength the instant he has
    put a man and a woman face to face?

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME V.

    Calling all religious things "weeper's wares"
    Everyone has his share
    How much excited cowardice there often is in boldness
    Love has no law
    People do not think as they speak, and do not speak as they act
    Rage of a timid man
    She saw that he would yield on every point

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME VI.

    As he had never enjoyed anything, he desired nothing
    Do you know how I picture God?
    Don't know what to say, for I am always terribly stupid at first
    Hotel bed: Who has occupied it the night before?
    Irresistible force of mutual affection
    Isn't for the fun of it, anyhow!
    Love must unsettle the mind
    Machine for bringing children into the world
    Moments of friendly silence
    One cannot both be and have been
    Only by going a long distance from home
    Sadness of existences that have had their day
    Well-planned disorder
    When did you lie, the last time or now?

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME VII.

    A sceptical genius has said: "God made man in his image and man has
    returned the compliment."  This saying is an eternal truth, and it would
    be very curious to write the history of the local divinity of every
    continent as well as the history of the patron saints in each one of our
    provinces.  The negro has his ferocious man-eating idols; the polygamous
    Mahometan fills his paradise with women; the Greeks, like a practical
    people, deified all the passions.

    Pierre Letoile was silent.  His companions were laughing.  One of them
    said: "Marriage is indeed a lottery; you must never choose your numbers.
    The haphazard ones are the best."—Another added by way of conclusion:
    "Yes, but do not forget that the god of drunkards chose for Pierre."

    No noise in the little park, no breath of air in the leaves; no voice
    passes through this silence.  One ought to write at the entrance to this
    district: 'No one laughs here; they take care of their health.'

    "Listen, Jacques.  He has forbidden me to see you again, and I will not
    play this comedy of coming secretly to your house.  You must either lose
    me or take me."—"My dear Irene, in that case, obtain your divorce, and I
    will marry you."—"Yes, you will marry me in—two years at the soonest.
    Yours is a patient love."

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME VIII.

    "Do you know the people who live in the little red cottage at the end of
    the Rue du Berceau?"—Madame Bondel was out of sorts.  She answered: "Yes
    and no; I am acquainted with them, but I do not care to know them."

    It seems that he had led a bad life, that is to say, he had squandered a
    little money, which action, in a poor family, is one of the greatest
    crimes.  With rich people a man who amuses himself only sows his wild
    oats.  He is what is generally called a sport.  But among needy families
    a boy who forces his parents to break into the capital becomes a
    good-for-nothing, a rascal, a scamp.  And this distinction is just, although
    the action be the same, for consequences alone determine the seriousness
    of the act.

    "Why; you are just the same as the others, you fool!"  That was indeed
    bravado, one of those pieces of impudence of which a woman makes use when
    she dares everything, risks everything, to wound and humiliate the man
    who has aroused her ire.  This poor man must also be one of those
    deceived husbands, like so many others.  He had said sadly: "There are
    times when she seems to have more confidence and faith in our friends
    than in me."  That is how a husband formulated his observations on the
    particular attentions of his wife for another man.  That was all.  He had
    seen nothing more.  He was like the rest—all the rest!

    He awaited he knew not what, possessed with that vague hope which
    persists in the human heart in spite of everything.  He awaited in the
    corner of the farmyard in the biting December wind, some mysterious aid
    from Heaven or from men, without the least idea whence it was to arrive.
    A number of black hens ran hither and thither, seeking their food in the
    earth which supports all living things.  Ever now and then they snapped
    up in their beaks a grain of corn or a tiny insect; then they continued
    their slow, sure search for nutriment.

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME IX.

    Full of that common sense which borders on stupidity
    Let them respect my convictions, and I will respect theirs
    Love that is sacred—not marriage!
    Mediocrities and the fools always form the immense majority
    Night-robe of streams and meadows
    Only being allowed to read religious works or cook-books
    Poetry did not seem to be the strong point
    Purgatory and paradise according to the yearly income
    She went through life in a mood of perpetual discontent
    So stupid and they pretend they know everything
    Spend his time quietly regretting the past
    The tomb is the boundary of conjugal sinning
    When we love, we have need of confession
    World has made laws to combat our instincts

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME X.

    "I heard 'birr!  birr!' and a magnificent covey rose at ten paces from
    me.  I aimed.  Pif!  paf!  and I saw a shower, a veritable shower of
    birds.  There were seven of them!"—And they all went into raptures,
    amazed, but reciprocally credulous.

    She was still smiling as she looked at him; she even began to laugh; and
    he lost his head trying to find something suitable to say, no matter
    what.  But he could think of nothing, nothing, and then, seized with a
    coward's courage, he said to himself: 'So much the worse, I will risk
    everything,' and suddenly, without the slightest warning, he went toward
    her, his arms extended, his lips protruding, and, seizing her in his
    arms, he kissed her.

    My elder sons never loved me, never petted me, scarcely treated me as a
    mother, but during my whole life I did my duty towards them, and I owe
    them nothing more after my death.  The ties of blood cannot exist without
    daily and constant affection.  An ungrateful son is less than, a
    stranger; he is a culprit, for he has no right to be indifferent towards
    his mother.

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME XI.

    I held my tongue, and thought over those words.  Oh, ethics!  Oh, logic!
    Oh, wisdom!  At his age!  So they deprived him of his only remaining
    pleasure out of regard for his health!  His health!  What would he do
    with it, inert and trembling wreck that he was?  They were taking care of
    his life, so they said.  His life?  How many days?  Ten, twenty, fifty,
    or a hundred?  Why?  For his own sake?  Or to preserve for some time
    longer the spectacle of his impotent greediness in the family.

    But all at once one envelope made me start.  My name was traced on it in
    a large, bold handwriting; and suddenly tears came to my eyes.  That
    letter was from my dearest friend, the companion of my youth, the
    confidant of my hopes; and he appeared before me so clearly, with his
    pleasant smile and his hand outstretched, that a cold shiver ran down my
    back.  Yes, yes, the dead come back, for I saw him!  Our memory is a more
    perfect world than the universe: it gives back life to those who no
    longer exist.

    But she shook with rage, and got up one of those conjugal scenes which
    make a peaceable man dread the domestic hearth more than a battlefield
    where bullets are raining.

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME XII.

    Monsieur Saval, who was called in Mantes "Father Saval," had just risen
    from bed.  He was weeping.  It was a dull autumn day; the leaves were
    falling.  They fell slowly in the rain, like a heavier and slower rain.
    M. Saval was not in good spirits.  He walked from the fireplace to the
    window, and from the window to the fireplace.  Life has its sombre days.
    It would no longer have any but sombre days for him, for he had reached
    the age of sixty-two.  He is alone, an old bachelor, with nobody about
    him.  How sad it is to die alone, all alone, without any one who is
    devoted to you!

    He pondered over his life, so barren, so empty.  He recalled former days,
    the days of his childhood, the home, the house of his parents; his
    college days, his follies; the time he studied law in Paris, his father's
    illness, his death.  He then returned to live with his mother.  They
    lived together very quietly, and desired nothing more.  At last the
    mother died.  How sad life is!  He lived alone since then, and now, in
    his turn, he, too, will soon be dead.  He will disappear, and that will
    be the end.  There will be no more of Paul Saval upon the earth.  What a
    frightful thing!  Other people will love, will laugh.  Yes, people will
    go on amusing themselves, and he will no longer exist!  Is it not strange
    that people can laugh, amuse themselves, be joyful under that eternal
    certainty of death?  If this death were only probable, one could then
    have hope; but no, it is inevitable, as inevitable as that night follows
    the day.

### SHORT STORIES VOLUME XIII.

    How I understood them, these who weak, harassed by misfortune, having
    lost those they loved, awakened from the dream of a tardy compensation,
    from the illusion of another existence where God will finally be just,
    after having been ferocious, and their minds disabused of the mirages of
    happiness, have given up the fight and desire to put an end to this
    ceaseless tragedy, or this shameful comedy.

    Suicide!  Why, it is the strength of those whose strength is exhausted,
    the hope of those who no longer believe, the sublime courage of the
    conquered!  Yes, there is at least one door to this life we can always
    open and pass through to the other side.  Nature had an impulse of pity;
    she did not shut us up in prison.  Mercy for the despairing!

    If genius is, as is commonly believed, a sort of aberration of great
    minds, then Algernon Charles Swinburne is undoubtedly a genius.

    Great minds that are healthy are never considered geniuses, while this
    sublime qualification is lavished on brains that are often inferior but
    are slightly touched by madness.

    Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm

    Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
    electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
    including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
    because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
    people in all walks of life.

    Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
    assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
    goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
    remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
    Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
    and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

    Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
    Literary Archive Foundation

    Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
    spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
    increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
    freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
    array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
    ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
    status with the IRS.

    The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
    charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
    States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
    considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
    with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
    where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
    SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
    particular state visit http://pglaf.org

    While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
    have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
    against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
    approach us with offers to donate.

    International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
    any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
    outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

    Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
    methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
    ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
    donations.  To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

    Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
    works.

    Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
    concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
    with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
    Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

    Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
    editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
    unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
    keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

    Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:

         http://www.gutenberg.net

    This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
    including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
    Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
    subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
