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

I was admonished ot adopt feminine clothes; I refused, and still refuse. As for other avocations of women, there are plenty of other women to perform them.

Act, and God will act.

Truly, if you were to tear me limb from limb and separate my soul from my body, I would not say anything more. If I did say anything, afterwards I would always declare that you made me say it by force!

I was in my thirteenth year when I heard a voice from God to help me govern my conduct. And the first time I was very much afraid.

I shall last a year, and but little longer: we must think to do good work in that year. Four things are laid upon me: to drive out the English; to bring you to be crowned and anointed at Reims; to rescue the Duke of Orléans from the hands of the English; and to raise the siege of Orléans.

The poor folk gladly came to me, for I did them no unkindness, but helped them as much as I could.
