On the day when a woman who passes before you emits light as she walks you are lost, for you love. You have from that moment but one thing to do: think of her so intently that she will be compelled to think of you.—Les Misérables.
The soul only needs to see a smile in a white crêpe bonnet in order to enter the palace of dreams.—Les Misérables.
She had upon her lips almost the light of a smile, with the fulness of tears in her eyes…. The reflection of an angel was in her look.—Toilers of the Sea.
ROBERT BROWNING.
There is a vision in the heart of each
Of justice, mercy, wisdom, tenderness
To wrong and pain, and knowledge of its cure:
And these embodied in a woman's form
That best transmits them, pure as first received,
From God above her, to mankind below.
