Victor Hugo Boredom Quotations

Nothing is so stifling as symmetry. Symmetry is boredom, the quintessence of mourning. Despair yawns. There is something more terrible than a hell of suffering - a hell of boredom.

Work is the law of life, and to reject it as boredom is to submit to it as torment.

Symmetry is tedious, and tedium is the very basis of mourning. Despair yawns.

There is something more terrible than a hell of suffering--a hell of boredom.
