If I am not in grace, may God set me there; and if I am, may God keep me there.
Joan of Arc Quotes
And as for you, archers, soldiers, gentlemen, and all others who are besieging Orleans, depart in God’s name to your own country... I assure you that wherever I find your people in France I shall fight them, and pursue them, and expel them from here, whether they will or not.

Joan of Arc, nicknamed "The Maid of Orléans" was born in Domremy, France. She was a French saint and military leader, acting under divine guidance, led the French army to victory over the English during the Hundred Years' War. Captured a year later, she was burned at the stake as a heretic by the English and their French collaborators. She was canonized as a Roman Catholic saint more than 500 years later, on May 16, 1920.
