― Victor Hugo, The Hunchback of Notre-Dame

“Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth.”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky, Crime and Punishment

“If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself.”

“Every moment of happiness requires a great amount of Ignorance”
― Honoré de Balzac
