“The Duchesse de Langeais will be happy that she might weep and be a power for you, still. Yes, you will regret me. I see clearly that I am not of this world, and I thank you for making it clear to me. Farewell. You will never touch my axe. Yours was the executioner's axe, mine is god's. Yours kills, mine saves. Your love was but mortal, it could not endure disdain or ridicule. Mine can endure all things without growing weaker.” — Honoré de Balzac
The Duchesse de Langeais will be happy that she might weep and be a power for you, still.
Yes, you will regret me. I see clearly that I am not of this world, and I thank you for making it clear to me.
Farewell. You will never touch my axe. Yours was the executioner's axe, mine is god's. Yours kills, mine saves. Your love was but mortal, it could not endure disdain or ridicule. Mine can endure all things without growing weaker.
