“Toleration is the best religion.” — Victor Hugo Quote

Toleration is the best religion.

It is nothing to die. It is frightful not to live.

It is the end. But of what? The end of France? No. The end of kings? Yes.

What Shakespeare was able to do in English he would certainly not have done in French.

A phenomenon often seen. A sceptic adhering to a believer; that is as simple as the law of the complementary colours. What we lack attracts us. Nobody loves the light like the blind man...

Try to see the good in others. When you're tempted to judge someone, make an effort to see their goodness. Your willingness to look for the best in people will subconsciously bring it forth.

When you have balance in your life, work becomes an entirely different experience. There is a passion that moves you to a whole new level of fulfillment and gratitude, and that's when you can do your best... for yourself and for others.

If a man does his best, what else is there?

The best thing to hold onto in life is each other.

Our best selves tell us that 'there but for the grace of God... ' and that, in the end, there is no distance, really, between us and them. It is just us. Our best and noble hope is to imitate the God we believe in. The God who has abundant room in God's grief and heart for us all.
