Victor Hugo

"The devotion of one man had given strength and courage to all."

"If the soul is left in darkness, sins will be committed. The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but the one who causes the darkness. (Monseigneur Bienvenu in _Les Miserables_)."

"They are les misérables - the outcasts, the underdogs. And who is to blame? Is it not the most fallen who have most need of charity?"

"A day will come when there will be no battlefields, but markets opening to commerce and minds opening to ideas."

"Have courage for the great sorrows of life and patience for the small ones; and when you have laboriously accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace."
