ALEXANDRE RODOLPHE VINET Swiss theologian and historian of literature (1797 - 1847) Duty does not consist in suffering everything, but in suffering everything for duty. Sometimes, indeed, it is our duty not to suffer.       - [Duty] Imitation causes us to leave natural ways to enter into artificial ones; it therefore makes slaves.       - [Imitation] Religion finds the love of happiness and the principles of duty separated in us; and its mission, its masterpiece, is to reunite them.       - [Religion] Resignation is the courage of Christian sorrow.       - [Resignation] The place of charity, like that of God, is everywhere.       - [Charity] Last Revised: 2008 April 9 Copyright © 1999-2008 John C.
