“I was sitting on the bed; I joined my hands; I implored its help. The Voice said to me: ‘Answer boldly.’ I asked advice as to how I should answer, begging it to entreat for this the counsel of the Lord. The Voice said to me: ‘Answer boldly; God will help you.’ Before I had prayed it to give me counsel, it said to me several words I could not readily understand. After I was awake, it said to me: ‘Answer boldly.’ [Addressing herself to the Bishop:] You say you are my judge. Take care what you are doing; for in truth I am sent by God, and you place yourself in great danger.”
— Joan of Arc
