More quotes by Victor Hugo

Image
Though one believes in nothing, there are moments in life when one accepts the religion of the temple nearest at hand.
Victor Hugo
Image
Crime is redeemed by remorse, but not by a blow of the axe or slipknot. Blood has to be washed by tears but not by blood.
Victor Hugo
Image
Initiative is doing the right thing without being told.
Victor Hugo
Image
Joy is the reflex of terror.
Victor Hugo
Image
Right is right only when entire.
Victor Hugo
Image
Smallness in a great man seems smaller by its disproportion with all the rest.
Victor Hugo
Image
Each of our passions, even love, has a stomach that must not be overloaded. We must in everything write the word 'finis' in time we must restrain ourselves, when it becomes urgent we must draw the bolt on the appetite, play a fantasia on the violin, then break the strings with our own hand. The Wise man is he who knows when and how to stop.
Victor Hugo
Image
Philosophy is the microscope of thought. Everything desires to flee from it, but nothing escapes it.
Victor Hugo
Image
An increase of tenderness always ended by boiling over and turning to indignation. He was at the point where we seek to adopt a course, and to accept what tears us apart.
Victor Hugo
Image
Phenomena intersect to see but one is to see nothing.
Victor Hugo
Image
The future has many names: For the weak, it means the unattainable. For the fearful, it means the unknown. For the courageous, it means opportunity.
Victor Hugo
Image
His universal compassion was due less to natural instinct, than to a profound conviction, a sum of thoughts that in the course of living had filtered through to his heart: for in the nature of man, as in rock, there may be channels hollowed by the dropping of water, and these can never be destroyed.
Victor Hugo
Image
God made only water, but man made wine.
Victor Hugo
Image
My day's work will begin again the next morning. The tomb is not a blind alley.
Victor Hugo
Image
How frightened hypocrisy hastens to defend itself.
Victor Hugo
Image
Civilization survives on the constant discovery of amity and an equal supply of damnation.
Victor Hugo
Image
A one-eyed man is much more incomplete than a blind man, for he knows what it is that's lacking.
Victor Hugo
Image
Teach the ignorant as much as you can society is culpable in not providing a free education for all and it must answer for the night which it produces. If the soul is left in darkness sins will be committed. The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but he who causes the darkness.
Victor Hugo
Image
Every bad institution of this world ends by suicide.
Victor Hugo
Image
Diamonds are to be found only in the darkness of the earth, and truth in the darkness of the mind.
