CONSCIENCE

"One can no more prevent thought from recurring to an idea than one can the sea from returning to the shore: the sailor calls it the tide; the guilty man calls it remorse."

Victor Hugo/translated by Isabel F. Hapgood
Les Miserables  p.296 Nook
Harper Perennial Classics   epub 2012

Loving This Classic,
Lonnie
