“Hope in God. If you have good hope and faith in Him, you shall be delivered from your enemies.”

Always stay near me, for tomorrow I will have much to do and more than I ever had, and tomorrow blood will leave my body above the breast.

The Maid and her soldiers will have the victory. Therefore the Maid is willing that you, Duke of Bedford, should not destroy yourself.

I answered the voice that I was a poor girl who knew nothing of riding and warfare.

But I must go, and I must do this thing, because my Lord will have it so. Rather now than tomorrow, and tomorrow than the day after!

Everything I have said or done is in the hands of God.

Every man gives his life for what he believes … one life is all we have to live and we live it according to what we believe.

I am not afraid; I was born to do this.

It is true that the king has made a truce with the duke of Burgundy for fifteen days and that the duke is to turn over the city of Paris at the end of fifteen days.

I am the drum on which God is beating out his message.

I would have gone nevertheless.

How else would God speak to me, if not through my imagination?

I would rather die than do something which I know to be a sin, or to be against God’s will.

But to sacrifice what you are and to live without belief, that is a fate more terrible than dying.

Even though I saw the executioner and the fire, I could not say anything but what I have said.

I used to say, “Go boldly in among the English,” and then I used to go boldly in myself.

One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it.

It is my earnest hope, and indeed the hope of all mankind, that from this solemn occasion a better world shall emerge out of the blood and carnage of the past…

I have great hopes that we shall love each other all our lives as much as if we had never married at all.

Make all men equal to-day, and God has so created them that they shall be all unequal to-morrow.

I believe we shall come to care about people less and less, Helen. The more people one knows, the easier it becomes to replace them. It’s one of the curses of London. I quite expect to end my life caring most for a place.

What man thinks of changing himself so as to suit his wife? And yet men expect that women shall put on altogether new characters when they are married, and girls think that they can do so.

You told me once that we shall be judged by our intentions, not by our accomplishments. I thought it a grand remark. But we must intend to accomplish – not sit intending on a chair.

A mind that has come to the stillness of wisdom shall know being, shall know what it is to love. Love is neither personal nor impersonal. Love is love, not to be defined or described by the mind as exclusive or inclusive. Love is its own eternity; it is the real, the supreme, the immeasurable.

So I shan’t ever marry, for there aren’t such men. And Heaven help any one whom I do marry, for I shall certainly run away from him before you can say ‘Jack Robinson.
