“Courageous Belgian people, you have conquered decisively! Make sure now to take advantage of this victory, your enemies are dumbfounded, let us not lose a moment, let us unite around the provisional government that has been established thanks to you, do not doubt that the arsonists, who you have expelled from your capital in such a humiliating way, are already plotting new crimes. No more hesitating and sparing, we must chase away once and for all the murderers from our house who have worked here with fire and sword, raping and destroying. We must save our mothers, our wives, our children and our property; we must live as free men, or bury ourselves under a mountain of ashes. Let us be united dear compatriots, and we will be invincible, the true order, it is indispensable to preserve our independence. Long live Belgium!”

“Courageous men never lose the zest for living even though their life situation is zestless; cowardly men, overwhelmed by the uncertainties of life, lose the will to live. We must constantly build dykes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.”

“Courageous parenting does not always involve saying no. Parents also need courage to say yes to the counsel of modern-day prophets. Our Church leaders have counseled us to establish righteous patterns in our homes. Consider five fundamental practices that have the power to fortify our youth: family prayer, family scripture study, family home evening, family dinner together, and regular one-on-one interviews with each child.”

“Courageux peuple belge, vous avez vaincu de façon décisive! Veillez maintenant à profiter de cette victoire, vos ennemis ont été réduits au silence, ne perdons pas un instant, unissons-nous autour du gouvernement provisoire qui a été mis en place grâce à vous, ne doutez pas que les incendiaires, que vous avez expulsés de votre capitale d'une manière si humiliante, préparent déjà de nouveaux crimes. N'hésitons plus, n'épargnons plus, chassons une fois pour toutes les assassins de chez nous qui ont travaillé ici par le feu et le sabre, violant et détruisant. Nous devons sauver nos mères, nos femmes, nos enfants et nos biens ; nous devons vivre en hommes libres, ou nous ensevelir sous une montagne de cendres. Soyons unis chers compatriotes, et alors nous serons invincibles, l'ordre véritable, il est indispensable pour préserver notre indépendance. Vive la Belgique!”

“Courage~ What makes the flag on the mast to wave? What makes the elephant charge his tusk in the misty mist, or the dusky dusk? What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage! What makes the sphinx the seventh wonder? Courage! What makes the dawn come up like thunder? Courage! What makes the Hottentot so hot? What puts the "ape" in apricot?~Cowardly Lion from the Wizard of Oz”

“Courez à Pamplemousses. Fouillez les trésors spirituels de votre terroir. Réveillez les mythes et soyez rajeunis d'âme. Les Rouges fouillaient les étoiles. Fouillez pour votre part la terre où ont passé leurs pas. Bénissez Cressonville, remerciez le Pouce, faites des génuflexions devant le Corps-de-Garde, plutôt qu'à vos puissants illusoires. L'île Maurice est une île du Mythe. Le mystère y rampe dans chaque allée. L'Alchimie y est continuelle, entre ciel et terre.”

“Court for money, and you will live superficially. Court for virtue, and you will live prudently. Court for fame, and you will live insincerely. Court for love, and you will live joyously. Marry for money, and you will live lavishly. Marry for virtue, and you will live honorably. Marry for fame, and you will live prominently. Marry for love, and you will live happily. Divorce for money, and you will live poorly. Divorce for virtue, and you will live peacefully. Divorce for fame, and you will live miserably. Divorce for love, and you will live tragically.”

“Court games aren't fair. They don't judge men by their worth, and they aren't about what's just. Guilty men can hold power their whole lives and be wept for when they pass. Innocent men can be spent like coins because it's convenient. You don't have to have sinned for them to ruin you. If your destruction is useful to them, you'll be destroyed.”
