Quote, Unquote ~ Valentine's Day Edition

Is it okay for me to do another quote from Les Mis? Of course it is.

I encountered in the street, a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was old, his coat was worn, his elbows were in holes; water trickled through his shoes, and the stars shone through his soul.
~ Victor Hugo, "A Heart Beneath a Stone", Les Misérables.

So, this is my quote for Valentine's day! A bit late, granted, but I thought it was appropriate. ;)

Vive l'France, sweeties.

  1. Very appropriate. Did you finally finish the non-abridged version?

  2. I have not, unfortunately... But I'm getting there! I'm holding back because I don't want to get to the painful parts too quickly again.

    1. (But, oh the irony! I began to read Cosette and Marius' romance on Valentine's Day itself.)
