Certain faculties of mankind are directed towards the Unknown:
thought, imagination, prayer. The Unknown is an ocean. What is
conscience? It is a compass in the Unknown. Thought, imagination,
prayer, these are great mysterious radiances. Let us respect them.
Where do these majestic radiances of the soul go? Into the
darkness—that is to say, towards the light.
From Les Miserables, by Victor Hugo
