Excerpt from Les Idées Et les Hommes: Essais de Critique
On voit, sur d'anciens vitraux, Charlemagne rouge et bleu couronné d'or et transparent, qui inspecte son ecole palatine. Il a rangé à sa droite les bons élèves et, à sa gauche, les mauvais. Il l'a fait avec décision; et il n'a gardé devant lui, dans l'incertitude, personne.
Pour la vivacité de son coup d'oeil et la netteté de son choix, l'empereur à la barbe fleurie, déjà pourvu du patronat des écoliers, mérite d'être institué prince de la critique. Sa forte image est un emblème des vertus que cet art exige.
