Quote of the Day

[dangermousie]

I encountered in the street, a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was old, his coat was worn, his elbows were in holes; water trickled through his shoes, and the stars through his soul.

Victor Hugo, Les Miserables. How I used to love this book! Time for a reread...

That's a helluva quote. If only I could write like that. Wow.

I love Hugo. He's fun and easy to read, even in French.

Hmm I've only see the movie, not the book. I think it's time for a read! :D

And people wonder why I love Les Mis (novel and musical) so much. It's all in that quote.
