Dumbledore in "Horctuxes":

"When Voldemort discovered that the diary had been 
mutilated and robbed of all its powers, I am told 
that his anger was terrible to behold."
. . .

"Ah, poor Lucius . . . what with Voldemort's fury 
about the fact that he threw away the horcrux for 
his own gain, and the fiasco at the Ministry last 
year, I would not be surprised if he is not secretly 
glad to be safe in Azkaban at the moment." (HBP, Am. Ed., p.508)

Told by whom, I ask.
