WIST Quotations<p><a href="https://wist.info/hugo-victor/75527/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">A quotation from <b>Hugo</b></a></p><blockquote>Strange to say, the first symptom of true love in a young man is timidity; in a young girl it is boldness. This is surprising, and yet nothing is more simple. It is the two sexes tending to approach each other and assuming each the other’s qualities.<br>&nbsp;<br><i>[Et puis, chose bizarre, le premier symptôme de l’amour vrai chez un jeune homme, c’est la timidité, chez une jeune fille, c’est la hardiesse. Ceci étonne, et rien n’est plus simple pourtant. Ce sont les deux sexes qui tendent à se rapprocher et qui prennent les qualités l’un de l’autre.]</i></blockquote><p><b>Victor Hugo</b> (1802-1885) French writer<br><i>Les Misérables</i>, Part 4 “St. Denis,” Book 3 “The House in the Rue Plumet,” ch. 6 (4.3.6) (1862) [tr.
