I will be Chateaubriand or nothing.
Victor Hugo
Image
As for the author, he is profoundly unaware of what the classical or romantic genre might consist of.... In literature, as in allthings, there is only the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly, the true and the false.
Victor Hugo

Victor Hugo
Image
Don't educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be happy, so they know the value of things, not the price.
Victor Hugo
Image
There is will in the thought, there is none in the dream. The dream, which is completely spontaneous, takes and keeps, even in the gigantic and the ideal, the form of our mind. Nothing springs more directly and more sincerely from the very bottom of our souls than our unreflected and indefinite aspirations towards the splendours of destiny.
Victor Hugo

Victor Hugo
Image
One can no more keep the mind from returning to an idea than the sea from returning to a shore. For a sailor, this is called the tide in the case of the guilty it is called remorse. God stirs up the soul as well as the ocean.
Victor Hugo
Image
He left her. She was dissatisfied with him. He had preferred to incur her anger rather than cause her pain. He had kept all the pain for himself.
Victor Hugo
Image
As with stomachs, we should pity minds that do not eat.
Victor Hugo
Image
There is one thing stronger than all the armies in the world, and that is an idea whose time as come.
Victor Hugo
Image
No one ever keeps a secret so well as a child.
Victor Hugo
Image
To rise from error to truth is rare and beautiful.
Victor Hugo
Image
His whole life was now summed up in two words: absolute uncertainty within an impenetrable fog.
Victor Hugo
Image
Never laugh at those who suffer suffer sometimes those who laugh.
Victor Hugo
