More quotes by Victor Hugo
Word which the finger of God has written on the brow of every man — hope!
Victor Hugo
You look at a star for two reasons, because it is luminous, and because it is impenetrable. You have beside you a sweeter radiance and a greater mystery, woman.
Victor Hugo
I represent a party which does not yet exist: the party Revolution-Civilization. This party will make the twentieth century. There will issue from it first the United States of Europe, then the United States of the World.
Victor Hugo
We teachers make the road, others will make the journey.
Victor Hugo
Love is the only future God offers.
Victor Hugo
Music is the vapor of art. It is to poetry what reverie is to thought, what fluid is to solid, what the ocean of clouds is to the ocean of waves.
Victor Hugo
The memory of an absent person shines in the deepest recesses of the heart, shining the more brightly the more wholly its object has vanished: a light on the horizon of the despairing, darkened spirit a star gleaming in our inward night.
Victor Hugo
My day's work will begin again the next morning. The tomb is not a blind alley.
Victor Hugo
Proverty and wealth are comparative sins.
Victor Hugo
The real, native South Seas food is lousy. You can't eat it.
Victor Hugo
At the moment when her eyes closed, when all feeling vanished in her, she thought that she felt a touch of fire imprinted on her lips, a kiss more burning than the red-hot iron of the executioner.
Victor Hugo
Be happy without picking flaws.
Victor Hugo
Cheerfulness is like money well expended in charity the more we dispense of it, the greater our possession.
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
He would give all of his clothes to his servant, admonishing him NOT to return them until he had completed his day's work.
Victor Hugo
Youth is the future smiling at a stranger, which is itself.
Victor Hugo
These are true felicities. No joy beyond these joys. Love is the only ecstasy, everything else weeps
Victor Hugo
Hypocrisy is nothing, in fact, but a horrible hopefulness.
Victor Hugo
There is suffering in the light in excess it burns. Flame is hostile to the wing. To burn and yet to fly, this is the miracle of genius.
Victor Hugo
God put in man thought society, action nature, revery.
Victor Hugo
