Excerpt from L'Imitation de Jésus Christ
Son humaine, qui ne savait que marcher à tâtons sur les vérités morales et religieuses; elles ont enfanté d'innombrables miracles de résignation et de douceur, de courage et de vertu; elles ont réagi contre la fiévreuse ardeur qui précipite les hommes dans'les joies sensuelles, et p0pularie le spiritualisme avec ses aspirations les plus s blimes elles ont combattu l'égoïsme et l'envieuse cupidité, en recommandant l'abnégation de so même et le renoncement aux biens terrestres elles ont tout fait pour la stabilité des empires et l'honneur de la civilisation, épurant etfortitiant la conscience, élevant les devoirs et les droits à la hauteur d'un principe religieux, rappelant à tous la grande loi de la charité chrétienne, et s'efforçant de remplacer la contrainte matérielle par le respect et le dévouement.
