“The greatest blunders, like the thickest ropes, are often compounded of a multitude of strands.

You think, “That is all there was!” But twist them all together and you have something tremendous.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

“I am invariably of the politics of the people at whose table I sit, or beneath whose roof I sleep.”
