More quotes by Victor Hugo

Image
Forget not, never forget that you have promised me to use this silver to become an honest man.... Jean Valjean, my brother: you belong no longer to evil, but to good. It is your soul that I am buying for you. I withdraw it from dark thoughts and from the spirit of perdition, and I give it to God!
Victor Hugo
Image
A faith is a necessity to a man. Woe to him who believes in nothing.
Victor Hugo
Image
Woe, alas, to those who have loved only bodies, forms, appearances! Death will rob them of everything. Try to love souls, you will find them again.
Victor Hugo
Image
God has made the cat to give man the pleasure of caressing the tiger.
Victor Hugo
Image
Despots play their part in the works of thinkers. Fettered words are terrible words. The writer doubles and trebles the power of his writing when a ruler imposes silence on the people. Something emerges from that enforced silence, a mysterious fullness which filters through and becomes steely in the thought.
Victor Hugo
Image

Victor Hugo
Image
It is sad to tell, but after having tried society, which had caused his misfortune, he tried Providence which created society, and condemned it also.
Victor Hugo

Though one believes in nothing, there are moments in life when one accepts the religion of the temple nearest at hand.
Victor Hugo
Image
Each of our passions, even love, has a stomach that must not be overloaded. We must in everything write the word 'finis' in time we must restrain ourselves, when it becomes urgent we must draw the bolt on the appetite, play a fantasia on the violin, then break the strings with our own hand. The Wise man is he who knows when and how to stop.
Victor Hugo
Image
Earnestness is the salt of eloquence.
Victor Hugo
Image
Solitude either develops the mental power, or renders men dull and vicious.
Victor Hugo
Image
The real, native South Seas food is lousy. You can't eat it.

Image
There must be people who pray even for those who never pray.
Victor Hugo
Image
Proverty and wealth are comparative sins.
Victor Hugo

The man is placed where the Earth ends, the woman, where the heaven starts.
