Then he is sympathetic to me because he has been combated and insulted by people who were eager to take his place, and who had not, as he had, in the depths of their souls, a love for the people. We have seen them in power since then. Heavens, how ugly they are! Senator Loyer, for instance, who at your house, in the smoking-room, filled his pockets with cigars, and invited me to do likewise.
And she was pointing disdainfully to a grinning young man, with a gardenia in his button-hole, who stood near them. Loyer motioned to the General that he wished to speak to him, and, pushing him against the bar, said: "I have the pleasure to announce to you that you have been appointed Minister of War." Lariviere, distrustful, said nothing.
Mine bleeds and moans under a rain of stones and of oyster-shells. Do the French, my love, really throw stones at Monsieur Choulette?" While Therese reassured Miss Bell, Loyer, imperious and somewhat noisy, caused the door of the box to be opened. He appeared wet and spattered with mud. "I come from the Elysee," he said.
"But, my dear," said Count Martin, placed in front of her, by the Princess's side, "without leading ideas one would go haphazard. Have you read, Montessuy, the speech delivered by Loyer at the unveiling of the Cadet-Gassicourt statue? The beginning is remarkable. Loyer is not lacking in political sense."
Marie Aubry; Mélisande, Mlle. Meuris; Arkël, Émile Raymond; Golaud, Lugné-Poë; Geneviève, Mme. Camée; Le petit Yniold, Georgette Loyer. "Take care," warns The Old Man in that most simply touching of Maeterlinck's plays, Intérieur; "we do not know how far the soul extends about men."
He looked at the two dancers who were extending their short and muscular legs on the bar. Lariviere murmured: "The army's patriotism is excellent; the good-will of the chiefs is at the height of the most critical circumstances." Loyer tapped his shoulder. "My dear colleague, there is some use in having big armies."
That Loyer is a bad man, harsh to the unfortunate, to the weak, and to the humble. And Garain, don't you think his mind is disgusting? Do you remember the first time I dined at your house and we talked of Napoleon? Your hair, twisted above your neck, and shot through by a diamond arrow, was adorable. Paul Vence said subtle things. Garain did not understand. You asked for my opinion."

His pale face and voice marked for her like a clock the minutes that passed with intolerable slowness. Loyer had odd sallies of wit. Immediately after he had declared his strict adhesion to the Concordat, he said: "Bishops are spiritual prefects. I will protect them since they belong to me. And through them I shall hold the guardians of souls, curates."
"The situation," he said, "exacts circumspection. We are facing a perilous unknown." Then Loyer, looking at his war colleague with cynical contempt, said: "In the very improbable case of a war, don't you think, my dear colleague, that the real generals would be the station-masters?" The three Ministers went out by the private stairway. The President of the Council was waiting for them.
