A day will come when there will be no battlefields, but markets opening to commerce and minds opening to ideas.
Victor HugoA creditor is worse than a slave-owner; for the master owns only your person, but a creditor owns your dignity, and can command it.
Victor HugoAll that was neither a city, nor a church, nor a river, nor color, nor light, nor shadow: it was reverie. For a long time, I remained motionless, letting myself be penetrated gently by this unspeakable ensemble, by the serenity of the sky and the melancholy of the moment. I do not know what was going on in my mind, and I could not express it; it was one of those ineffable moments when one feels something in himself which is going to sleep and something which is awakening.
