And then perhaps there will be only one flock and one shepherd — a free shepherd with an iron crook — and one great herd of men all shorn and all bleating alike. Wild and gloomy times come roaring on, and the prophet who would write a new Apocalypse must imagine new beasts, and those so terrible that the old symbols of St. John as compared to them will seem like...
Pagina 13 - Germany, of those false patriots whose love for their native land consists only of idiotic aversion to all foreign or neighbouring races, and who day by day pour out their hatred for France. Yes, this relic or these successors of the Teutomaniacs of 1815, who have only modernised their old costume of ultra-Germanic fools and shortened their ears a little, I have detested and fought them all my life, and now, as the sword falls from the hand of the dying man, I feel myself consoled by the conviction...

Pagina 246 - Tout comprendre c'est tout pardonner," 1 None are so blind as those who will not see ; and it is amusing to find Heine and a Minister of France bewildered over what had struck me while a schoolboy in America as a most palpable and natural cause of German irritation.

Thiers, and also, as...
Pagina 262 - This consciousness of inability is of itself half death, and the hand only helps to abridge the agony. However ingenious and vivid the works of Robert may have been, they were still only the pale spectres of the blooming beauties of Nature which swept before his soul, and a practised eye easily discovers a wearisome painful strife with the subject (Staff] which he could only overcome by the most desperate effort.
Pagina 378 - Ah! how unhappy the rich are in this world! — and yet after death they cannot enter the kingdom of heaven! 'It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
Pagina 402 - ... to all sorts of millionaires? Had not [Rothschild], the generalissimo of all millionaires, the millionairissimo, called me his friend? What I could never make my clients understand was that this great millionairissimo called me his friend only because I never asked him for money. Had I done so, our friendship would soon have been at an end. The days of David and Jonathan, of Orestes and Pylades, are past. The poor blockheads who wanted my help thought it was easy to obtain this commodity from...
Pagina 301 - ... of to-day. It will be a terrible conflict — how will it end ? That the gods and goddesses only know who know the future. This much do we know, that Communism, though it be at present but little discussed, and now yearns away its life in forgotten garrets on wretched straw-pallets, is still the gloomy hero to whom a great if transitory part is assigned in the modern tragedy, and which only waits its cue (Stichwort, replique) to enter on the stage.
