Victor Hugo Quotes, Heart Quotes, Destiny Quotes

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?

How sad is the heart when rendered sad by love! How great is the void created by the absence of the being who alone fills the world.
