For sight is woman-like and shuns the old.

Victor Hugo 1217 quotes

Men are still men. The despot'...

Men are still men. The despot's wickedness Comes of ill teaching, and of power's excess,-- Comes of the purple he from childhood wears, Slaves would be tyrants if the chance were theirs.

It is God who makes woman beautiful, it is the devil who makes her pretty.

In my old age there is a coming into flower. My body wanes; my mind waxes.

Man lives more by affirmation ...

Man lives more by affirmation than by bread.

Victor Hugo 1217 quotes

All roads are blocked to a philosophy which reduces everything to the word 'no.' To 'no' there is only one answer and that is 'yes.

Victor Hugo 1217 quotes

Friendship exists outside our ...

Friendship exists outside our modern economy of scarcity... It's not about apportioning vanishing resources of time and energy. Friendship is a blessed relic of the ancient economy of the gift, and the time freely given to people dear to you actually creates magical abundance.

Victor Hugo 1217 quotes

Music is the vapor of art. It ...

Music is the vapor of art. It is to poetry what reverie is to thought, what fluid is to solid, what the ocean of clouds is to the ocean of waves.

Nihilism has no substance. There is no such thing as nothingness, and zero does not exist. Everything is something. Nothing is nothing.

To die for lack of love is horrible. The asphyxia of the soul.

One resists the invasion of armies; one does not resist the invasion of ideas.

Not being heard is no reason for silence.

...We pray together, we are af...

...We pray together, we are afraid together, and then we go to sleep. Even if Satan came into the house, no one would interfere. After all, what is there to fear in this house? There is always one with us who is the strongest. Satan may visit our house, but the good Lord lives here.

Victor Hugo 1217 quotes

...But listen, there will be m...

...But listen, there will be more joy in heaven over the tears of a repentant sinner than over the white robes of a hundred just men.

Victor Hugo 1217 quotes

...Human thought has no limit....

...Human thought has no limit. At its risk and peril, it analyzes and dissects its own fascination. We could almost say that, by a sort of splendid reaction, it fascinates nature; the mysterious world surrounding us returns what it receives; it is likely that contemplators are contemplated.

Victor Hugo 1217 quotes

...The girls chirped and chatt...

...The girls chirped and chatted like uncaged warblers. They were delirious with joy... Intoxications of life's morning! Enchanted years! The wing of a dragonfly trembles! Oh, reader, whoever you may be, do you have such memories? Have you walked in the underbrush, pushing aside branches for the charming head behind you? Have you slid laughing, down some slope wet with rain, with the woman you loved?

Victor Hugo 1217 quotes

...Though we chisel away as be...

...Though we chisel away as best we can at the mysterious block from which our life is made, the black vein of destiny continually reappears.

Victor Hugo 1217 quotes

One can no more keep the mind ...

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.

...Man lives by affirmation even more than he does by bread.

It was SHE. Whoever has loved knows all the radiant meaning contained in the three letters of this word 'she.
