More quotes by Victor Hugo
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
The earth is a great piece of stupidity.
Victor Hugo

Victor Hugo
Love partakes of the soul itself. it is of the same nature. like it, it is a divine spark, like it, it is incorruptible, indivisible, imperishable, it is the point of fire which is within us, which is immortal and infinite, which nothing can limit and nothing can extinguish.
Victor Hugo

But twist them all together and you have something tremendous.

Daring is the price of progress. All splendid conquests are the prize of boldness, more or less.
Victor Hugo
Nations, like stars, are entitled to eclipse. All is well, provided the light returns and the eclipse does not become endless night. Dawn and resurrection are synonymous. The reappearance of the light is the same as the survival of the soul.
Victor Hugo
And then, strange to say, the first symptom of true love in a young man is timidity in a girl, it is boldness.
Victor Hugo

Victor Hugo
Art needs no spur beyond itself.
Victor Hugo
Change your opinions, keep to your principles change your leaves, keep intact your roots.
Victor Hugo
Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face.
Victor Hugo
The spirit of God, like the sun, always gives all its light at once. The spirit of man resembles the pale moon, which has its phases, its absences and its returns, its lucidity and its spots, its fullness and its disappearance, which borrows all its light from the rays of the sun, and which still dares to intercept them on occasion.
Victor Hugo
