Text Quotes
Because one doesn't like the way things are is no reason to be unjust towards God  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Each man should frame life so that at some future hour fact and his dreaming meet  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent  (Victor Hugo Quotes) To think is of itself to be useful; it is always and in all cases a striving toward God  (Victor Hugo Quotes) What is history? An echo of the past in the future; a reflex from the future on the past  (Victor Hugo Quotes) 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 Quotes) The nearer I approach the end, the plainer I hear around me the immortal symphonies of the worlds which invite me. It is marvelous, yet simple  (Victor Hugo Quotes) 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 Quotes) 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  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Nihilism has no substance. There is no such thing as nothingness, and zero does not exist. Everything is something. Nothing is nothing  (Victor Hugo Quotes) No matter who you are, the thought of so much suffering and degradation must cause you to shudder at the sight of a veil or cassock, those two shrouds of human invention  (Victor Hugo Quotes) If you don’t build castles in the air you won’t build anything on the ground  (Victor Hugo Quotes) To rove about, musing, that is to say loitering, is, for a philosopher, a good way of spending time  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Woman, nude, is the blue sky. Clouds and garments are an obstacle to contemplation. Beauty and infinity would be gazed upon unveiled  (Victor Hugo Quotes) The aim of art is almost divine: to bring to life again if it is writing history, to create if it is writing poetry  (Victor Hugo Quotes) The earlier works of a man of genius are always preferred to the newer ones, in order to prove that he is going down instead of up  (Victor Hugo Quotes) To introduce a new play only six weeks after another has been banned is also a way to speak one’s piece to the government. It proves that art and liberty can grow back in one night under the clumsy foot which crushes them  (Victor Hugo Quotes) The most excellent symbol of the people is the paving stone. One walks on it until it falls on one’s head  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Let us say it now: to be blind and to be loved, is indeed, upon this earth where nothing is complete, one of the most strangely exquisite forms of happiness  (Victor Hugo Quotes) God has bestowed two gifts on man: hope and ignorance. Ignorance is the better of the two  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Emergencies have always been necessary to progress. It was darkness which produced the lamp. It was fog that produced the compass. It was hunger that drove us to exploration. And it took a depression to teach us the real value of a job  (Victor Hugo Quotes) There is always more misery among the lower classes than there is humanity in the higher  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Work is the law of life, and to reject it as boredom is to submit to it as torment  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Where the telescope ends the microscope begins, and who can say which has the wider vision?  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Love is like a tree, it grows of its own accord, it puts down deep roots into our whole being  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Amnesty is as good for those who give it as for those who receive it. It has the admirable quality of bestowing mercy on both sides  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Be as a bird perched on a frail branch that she feels bending beneath her, still she sings away all the same, knowing she has wings  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Be like the bird who, pausing in her flight awhile on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, and yet sings, knowing she hath wings  (Victor Hugo Quotes) Hell is an outrage on humanity. When you tell me that your deity made you in his image, I reply that he must have been very ugly  (Victor Hugo Quotes) How did it happen that their lips came together? How does it happen that birds sing, that snow melts, that the rose unfolds, that the dawn whitens behind the stark shapes of trees on the quivering summit of the hill? A kiss, and all was said  (Victor Hugo Quotes)
