Pierre Corneille Quotes
Sans doute vos chrétiens, qu'on persécute en vain,Ont quelque chose en eux qui surpasse l'humain:Ils mènent une vie avec tant d'innocence,Que le ciel leur en doit quelque reconnaissance;Se relever plus forts, plus ils sont abattus,N'est pas aussi l'effet des communes vertus.
