“It is the small flock of God. "Whoever receives in my name one of those little" said Jesus, "It is myself who receives."”

Léon Bloy (1846–1917) French writer, poet and essayist

What thinks the one that sticks, that maims, or inflicts to their pure souls more black sorrow than death? (...) The curse of a crowd of children, is a cataclysm, a horror prodigy, a chain of dark mountains in the sky, with a cavalcade of thunder and lightning in their tops. It is the infinite of the cries of all deep, is a not know what highly powerful unforgiving and extinguishing any hope of forgiveness.
