Victor-Marie Hugo Quote

Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new

Surprises are foolish things. The pleasure is not enhanced, and the inconvenience is often considerable

It is so hard to believe because it is so hard to obey

But there is only one thing which gathers people into seditious commotion, and that is oppression

When the house is on fire good girls have to get out as well as the bad ones

Nothing puzzles me more than time and space; and yet nothing troubles me less
