Happiness wishes everybody happy.
Victor Hugo
The human soul has still greater need of the ideal than of the real. It is by the real that we exist it is by the ideal that we live.
Victor Hugo
Forget not, never forget that you have promised me to use this silver to become an honest man.... Jean Valjean, my brother: you belong no longer to evil, but to good. It is your soul that I am buying for you. I withdraw it from dark thoughts and from the spirit of perdition, and I give it to God!
Victor Hugo
She was a lovely blonde, with fine teeth. She had gold and pearls for her dowry but her gold was on her head, and her pearls were in her mouth.
Victor Hugo
The clouds, - the only birds that never sleep.

Victor Hugo
There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time as come.
Victor Hugo
The mind's eye can nowhere find anything more dazzling or more dark than in man it can fix itself upon nothing which is more awful, more complex, more mysterious, or more infinite. There is one spectacle grander than the sea, that is the sky there is one spectacle grander than the sky, that is the interior of the soul.
Victor Hugo
Love is reducing the universe to one being.
Victor Hugo
You have enemies? Why, it is the story of every man who has done a great deed or created a new idea. It is the cloud which thunders around everything that shines. Fame must have enemies, as light must have gnats. Do no bother yourself about it disdain. Keep your mind serene as you keep your life clear.
Victor Hugo
A faith is a necessity to a man. Woe to him who believes in nothing.
Victor Hugo
Civilization survives on the constant discovery of amity and an equal supply of damnation.
Victor Hugo
