Famous quotes containing the words darkness and/or triumphant:
“Such is the remorseless progression of human society, shedding lives and souls as it goes on its way. It is an ocean into which men sink who have been cast out by the law and consigned, with help most cruelly withheld, to moral death. The sea is the pitiless social darkness into which the penal system casts those it has condemned, an unfathomable waste of misery. The human soul, lost in those depths, may become a corpse. Who shall revive it?”
—Victor Hugo (18021885)
“In all private quarrels the duller nature is triumphant by reason of dullness.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
