O darkness, the sky is a gloomy precinct Whose door you close, and whose key the soul owns And night divides itself in half, being diabolical and holy, Between Ilis, the black angel, and Christ, the starry Human Being.
Victor Hugo
Image
A phenomenon often seen. A sceptic adhering to a believer that is as simple as the law of the complementary colours. What we lack attracts us. Nobody loves the light like the blind man.
Victor Hugo
Image
Every bird which flies has the thread of the infinite in its claw. Germination includes the hatching of a meteor and the tap of a swallow's bill breaking the egg, and it leads forward the birth of an earth-worm and the advent of Socrates.
Victor Hugo

Have courage for the great sorrows of life and patience for the small ones and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace.

Science says the first word on everything, and the last word on nothing.

Victor Hugo
Image
The saints were his friends, and blessed him the monsters were his friends, and guarded him.
