Uncertain Glory (1944)

Dennis Hoey: Father Le Clerc

Quotes 

• Mme. Maret : What will become of my son?

  Father Le Clerc : We must put our trust in God Madame

  Mme. Maret : I've always put my trust in Him. There's no better Christian in this village than I. But now my only son has been taken from me. They say he's going to be shot within four days. Am I so unreasonable to ask why?

  Father Le Clerc : In God's time all will be answered.

  Mme. Maret : Don't put me off with pious phrases, Father. For Jules, I would question every saint in heaven and how would they reply?

  Middle-Aged Woman at Meeting : It doesn't help us that people call them martyrs.

  Mme. Maret : Martyrs are fools who die because they want to. My son wants to live.
