The hatred of luxury is not an intelligent hatred. It implies a hatred of arts.
Victor Hugo
Image
He does not weep who does not see.
Victor Hugo
Image
They say love is blindness of heart I say not to love is blindness.
Victor Hugo
Image
The wise man is he who knows when and how to stop
Victor Hugo
Image
Love is like a tree: it grows by itself, roots itself deeply in our being and continues to flourish over a heart in ruin. The inexplicable fact is that the blinder it is, the more tenacious it is. It is never stronger than when it is completely unreasonable.
Victor Hugo
Image
Rhyme, that enslaved queen, that supreme charm of our poetry, that creator of our meter.
Victor Hugo
Image
He sought...to transform the grief which looks down into the grave by showing it the grief which looks up to the stars.
Victor Hugo
Image
Never laugh at those who suffer suffer sometimes those who laugh.
Victor Hugo
Image
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
Image
We are reassured almost as foolishly as we are alarmed human nature is so constituted.
Victor Hugo
Image
Superstitions, bigotries, hypocrisies, prejudices, these phantoms, phantoms though they be, cling to life they have teeth and nails in their shadowy substance, and we must grapple with them individually and make war on them without truce for it is one of humanity's inevitabilities to be condemned to eternal struggle with phantoms.
Victor Hugo
Image
All the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come.
Victor Hugo
Image
Love, thine is the future. Death, I use thee, but I hate thee. Citizens, there shall be in the future neither darkness nor thunderbolts neither ferocious ignorance nor blood for blood.
Victor Hugo
Image
Society is a republic. When an individual tries to lift themselves above others, they are dragged down by the mass, either by ridicule or slander.
Victor Hugo
Image
This book should be read as one would read the book of a dead man.
Victor Hugo
Image
Emotion is always new and the word has always served therein lies the difficulty of expressing emotion.
Victor Hugo
Image
An increase of tenderness always ended by boiling over and turning to indignation. He was at the point where we seek to adopt a course, and to accept what tears us apart.
Victor Hugo
Image
I write with one hand, but I fight with both.
Victor Hugo
Image
Teach the ignorant as much as you can society is culpable in not providing a free education for all and it must answer for the night which it produces. If the soul is left in darkness sins will be committed. The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but he who causes the darkness.
Victor Hugo
Image
Crime is redeemed by remorse, but not by a blow of the axe or slipknot. Blood has to be washed by tears but not by blood.
Victor Hugo
