More quotes by Victor Hugo
I will be Chateaubriand or nothing.
Victor Hugo
Dost thou understand? I love thee! he cried again.What love! said the unhappy girl with a shudder.He resumed,--The love of a damned soul.
Victor Hugo
The three great problems of this century the degradation of man in the proletariat, the subjection of women through hunger, the atrophy of the child by darkness.
Victor Hugo
To be a saint is the exception to be a just person is the rule. Err, stumble, commit sin, but be one of the just.
Victor Hugo
There have been in this century only one great man and one great thing: Napoleon and liberty. For want of the great man, let us have the great thing.
Victor Hugo
There is a material advancement we desire it. There is, also, a moral grandeur we hold fast to it.
Victor Hugo
Despots play their part in the works of thinkers. Fettered words are terrible words. The writer doubles and trebles the power of his writing when a ruler imposes silence on the people. Something emerges from that enforced silence, a mysterious fullness which filters through and becomes steely in the thought.
Victor Hugo
She might have melted a heart of stone, but nothing can melt a heart of wood.
Victor Hugo
Great blunders are often made, like large ropes, of a multitude of fibres.
Victor Hugo
Great griefs exhaust. They discourage us with life. The man into whom they enter feels something taken from him. In youth, their visit is sad later on, it is ominous.
Victor Hugo
Who then can calculate the path of the molecule? how do we know that the creations of worlds are not determined by the fall of grains of sand?
Victor Hugo
Why worry about what threatens our heads or purses? Let us think instead of what threatens our souls.
Victor Hugo
To sum up all, let it be known that science and religion are two identical words. The learned do not suspect this, no more do the religious. These two words express the two sides of the same fact, which is the infinite. Religion-Science, this is the future of the human mind.
Victor Hugo
Great blunders are often made, like large ropes, of a multitude of fibers. Take the cable thread by thread, take separately all the little determining motives, you break them one after another, and you say: that is all! Wind them and twist them together, they become an enormity.
Victor Hugo
He never went out without a book under his arm, and he often came back with two.
Victor Hugo
The animal is ignorant of the fact that he knows. The man is aware of the fact that he is ignorant.
Victor Hugo
A man is not idle because he is absorbed in thought. There is a visible labor and there is an invisible labor.
Victor Hugo
Almost all our desires, when examined, contain something too shameful to reveal.
Victor Hugo
The spirit of God, like the sun, always gives all its light at once. The spirit of man resembles the pale moon, which has its phases, its absences and its returns, its lucidity and its spots, its fullness and its disappearance, which borrows all its light from the rays of the sun, and which still dares to intercept them on occasion.
Victor Hugo
I write with one hand, but I fight with both.
Victor Hugo
