A compliment is something like a kiss through a veil.
Victor Hugo
Image
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.

Slaves would be tyrants were the chance theirs.
Victor Hugo
Image
With a tiny bit of effort, the nettle would be useful if you neglect it, it becomes a pest. So then we kill it. How many men are like nettles My friends, there is no such thing as a weed and no such thing as a bad man. There are only bad cultivators.

What is fright by night is curiosity by day.
Victor Hugo
Image
All roads are blocked to a philosophy which reduces everything to the word 'no.' To 'no' there is only one answer and that is 'yes.
