A garden to walk in and immensity to dream in--what more could he ask? A few flowers at his feet and above him the stars.
Victor Hugo
No religion but blasphemes a little.
Victor Hugo
If I have not been exposed and am not in any danger of pursuit. But I have been exposed, I am pursued - by myself! That is a pursuer that does not readily let go.
Victor Hugo
What I feel for you seems less of earth and more of a cloudless heaven.
