Loving is half of believing.
Victor Hugo
Image
She might have melted a heart of stone, but nothing can melt a heart of wood.
Victor Hugo
Image
A wretched woman is more unfortunate than a wretched man.
Victor Hugo
Image
Nihilism has no substance. There is no such thing as nothingness, and zero does not exist. Everything is something. Nothing is nothing.
Victor Hugo
Image
Art needs no spur beyond itself.
Victor Hugo
Image
To introduce a new play only six weeks after another has been banned is also a way to speak one's piece to the government. It proves that art and liberty can grow back in one night under the clumsy foot which crushes them.
Victor Hugo
Image
The soul helps the body, and at certain moments raises it. It is the only bird that sustains its cage.
Victor Hugo
Image
God was bored by him.
Victor Hugo
Image
His universal compassion was due less to natural instinct, than to a profound conviction, a sum of thoughts that in the course of living had filtered through to his heart: for in the nature of man, as in rock, there may be channels hollowed by the dropping of water, and these can never be destroyed.
Victor Hugo
Image
A translation in verse . . . seems to me something absurd, impossible.
Victor Hugo
Image
He was at his own request and through his own complicity driven out of all his happinesses one after the other and he had this sorrow, that after having lost Cosette wholly in one day, he was afterwards obliged to lose her again in detail.
Victor Hugo
Image
. . .where there is no more hope, song remains.
Victor Hugo
Image
God manifests himself to us in the first degree through the life of the universe, and in the second degree through the thought of man. The second manifestation is not less holy than the first. The first is named Nature, the second is named Art.
Victor Hugo
Image
The straight line, a respectable optical illusion which ruins many a man.
Victor Hugo
Image
I like the laughter that opens the lips and the heart, shows at the same time the pearls and the soul.
Victor Hugo
Image
Marius and Cosette did not ask where this would lead them. They looked at themselves as arrived. It is a strange pretension for men to ask that love should lead them somewhere.
Victor Hugo
Image
A house is built of logs and stone, of tiles and posts and piers a home is built of loving deeds that stand a thousand years.
Victor Hugo
Image
There are many tongues to talk, and but few heads to think.
Victor Hugo
Image
A queen, devoid of beauty is not queen She needs the royalty of beauty's mien.
Victor Hugo
Image
He had, they said, tasted in succession all the apples of the tree of knowledge, and, whether from hunger or disgust, had ended by tasting the forbidden fruit.
