Les Miserables

CHAPTER VIII--PHILOSOPHY AFTER DRINKING
4/18

Then what is the good of the Eternal Father?
The Jehovah hypothesis tires me, Bishop.

It is good for nothing but to produce shallow people, whose reasoning is hollow.

Down with that great All, which torments me! Hurrah for Zero which leaves me in peace! Between you and me, and in order to empty my sack, and make confession to my pastor, as it behooves me to do, I will admit to you that I have good sense.

I am not enthusiastic over your Jesus, who preaches renunciation and sacrifice to the last extremity.

'Tis the counsel of an avaricious man to beggars.
