More quotes by Victor Hugo
Not ill? No truly, I am young, healthful, and strong the blood flows freely in my veins my limbs obey my will I am robust in mind and body, constituted for a long life. Yes, all this is true and yet, nevertheless, I have an illness, a fatal illness,-an illness given by the hand of man!
Victor Hugo
To die for lack of love is horrible. The asphyxia of the soul.
Victor Hugo
Son, brother, father, lover, friend. There is room in the heart for all the affections, as there is room in heaven for all the stars.
Victor Hugo
Friend is sometimes a word devoid of meaning enemy, never.
Victor Hugo
It seems as though, at the approach of a certain dark hour, the light of heaven infills those who are leaving the light of earth.
Victor Hugo
What's our baggage? Only vows, Happiness, and all our care, And the flower that sweetly shows Nestling lightly in your hair.
Victor Hugo
When a man is out of sight, it is not too long before he is out of mind.
Victor Hugo
Inspiration and genius -one and the same.
Victor Hugo
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
Great blunders are often made, like large ropes, of a multitude of fibers. Take the cable thread by thread, take separately all the little determining motives, you break them one after another, and you say: that is all! Wind them and twist them together, they become an enormity.
Victor Hugo
All animals are to be found in men and each of theme exists in some man, sometimes several at the time.
Victor Hugo
The most beautiful of altars, he said, is the soul of an unhappy creature consoled and thankfing God.
Victor Hugo
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
His whole life was now summed up in two words: absolute uncertainty within an impenetrable fog.
Victor Hugo
I repeat, whether we be Italians or Frenchmen, misery concerns us all.
Victor Hugo
The pupil dilates in darkness and in the end finds light, just as the soul dilates in misfortune and in the end finds God.
Victor Hugo
To rove about, musing, that is to say loitering, is, for a philosopher, a good way of spending time, especially in that kind of mock rurality, ugly but odd, and partaking of two natures, which surrounds certain large cities, particularly Paris.
Victor Hugo
God has made the cat to give man the pleasure of caressing the tiger.
Victor Hugo
There is such a thing as the pressure of darkness.
Victor Hugo
The soul has illusions as the bird has wings: it is supported by them.
Victor Hugo
