Victor Hugo Quotes About Human Nature

Quotes about: Human Nature

• We are reassured almost as foolishly as we are alarmed; human nature is so constituted.

  Victor Hugo

  Human Nature, Mankind, Humans

  Victor Hugo (1994). “Les Miserables Volume Two”, p.782, Wordsworth Editions

• Can human nature ever be wholly and radically transformed? Can the man whom God made good be made wicked by man? Can the soul be reshaped in its entirety by destiny and made evil because destiny is evil? Can the heart become misshapen and afflicted with ugly, incurable deformities under disproportionate misfortune, like a spinal column bent beneath a too low roof?

  Victor Hugo

  Heart, Destiny, Men

• The spirit of God, like the sun, always gives all its light at once. The spirit of man resembles the pale moon, which has its phases, its absences and its returns, its lucidity and its spots, its fullness and its disappearance, which borrows all its light from the rays of the sun, and which still dares to intercept them on occasion.

  Victor Hugo

  God, Pride, Moon
