Les Miserables by Victor Hugo

Les Miserables By Victor Hugo: "í Grantaire perfectly boozy was deafening the corner of which he had taken possession he was talking sense md nonsense with all his might he cried I am thirsty Mortals I have a dream that the tun of Heidelberg has an attack of apoplexy and that I am the dozen leeches which is to be applied to it I would like a drink I desire to forget life Life is a hideous invention of somebody I don t know who It doesn t last and it is good for nothing You break your neck to live Life is a stage scene in which there is little that is practical Happiness is an old sash painted on one side The Ecclesiast says all is vanity I agree with that goodman who perhaps never existed Zero not wishing to go entirely naked has clothed himself in vanity О vanity 1 the patching up of everything with big words a kitchen is a nboratory a dancer is a professor a I " Grantaire, in Victor Hugo's Les Miserables, quotes "The Ecclesiast", 'all is vanity'.
