To love another person is to see the face of God. - Victor Hugo

"The first symptom of love in a young man is timidity; in a girl boldness."

"Each man should frame life so that at some future hour fact and his dreaming meet."

"I see black light (his last words)"

"The human soul has still greater need of the ideal than of the real. It is by the real that we exist, it is by the ideal that we live."

"Dear God! how beauty varies in nature and art. In a woman the flesh must be like marble; in a statue the marble must be like flesh."
