Do not be surprise if men judge you, condemn you and annoy you incessantly, by venting their bad temper on you, they will be more peaceful with others. Look at yourself as a rag in the house, a rag with which everyone wipes his hands. When you have been well fed with gall and bitterness, go and stand before Jesus, allow yourself to fall on his Heart and pour out your soul into this Heart. Do not be afraid.
Francis Libermann
Cf. Notes and Documents, IV, 269, 1843.
Ne vous étonnez pas si les hommes vous jugent et vous contrarient sans cesse. Déchargeant sur vous cette mauvaise humeur, ils seront plus paisibles avec d’autres. Regardez-vous comme un chiffon dans la maison, chiffon auquel tout le monde s’essuie les mains. Allez vous présenter devant Jésus, et versez votre âme dans son Coeur. Ne craignez pas.
François Libermann
Cf. Notes et Documents, IV, 269, 1843.
Não se admirem se os homens vos julgam, vos condanam e vos contrariam sem cessar. Descarregando sobre vós este mau humor, eles serão mais calmos com os outros. Considerai-vos como um farrapo em casa, farrapo no qual todos limpam as mãos. Ide apresentar-vos diante de Jesus, encostai-vos ao seu Coração e despejai a vossa alma neste Coração. Não temais.
Francisco Libermann
Cf. Notas e Documentos, IV, 269, 1843.
To become men: this must be your aim. You see, it is so necessary and yet so difficult. A man is somebody who knows what he wants to do and carries it out whatever the cost. He is a person who, once and for all, sets himself an ideal and then sets out to achieve it, whatever the suffering involved.
Daniel Brottier, 01.09.1935. Foyers à la Campagne, III 339

Devenir des hommes : tel doit être votre idéal, c’est si nécessaire, voyez-vous, mes enfants, et si difficile à la fois. Un homme, c’est celui qui sait ce qu’il veut et qui l’accomplit coûte que coûte. C’est celui qui, une fois pour toutes, s’est fixé un idéal et pour qui rien n’est trop ardu pourvu que cela l’en rapproche.
P. Brottier, 01.09.1935, Foyers à la Campagne, III, 399

Ser homens; tal deve ser o vosso ideal, é tão necessário, vede, meus filhos, e ao mesmo tempo tão difícil. Um homem é aquele que sabe o que quer e que o realiza custe o que custar. É aquele que, uma vez por todas, se propôs um ideal e pelo qual nada é muito difícil contanto que isso nos aproxime dele.
