“I have seen two cocks fighting a long and severe battle together, tearing one another to pieces with beak and spurs, and when they were both utterly exhausted, and could fight no more, their rage against one another had not diminished but increased. And so I have seen many of these faction-men, so utterly wretched as to have wasted their whole substance upon their feuds, and to have nothing at all left, except the rabid fury of their party spirit.” St. Bernardine (Quoted in “The Contemporaries of Saint Bernardine” written by H.B. and published pg. 268 in “The Month and Catholic Review: Volume XXVII”, pub. 1876 BURNS AND OATES, London.)
