Famous line by Victor Hugo from his collection of poems " Les Voix Intérieures " published in 1837 (See God is always there ).

"He who gives to the poor lends to God." - Victor Hugo

 

A magnificent thought that the writer wished to be universal; which he wrote and quoted regularly throughout his life, like a philosophical and religious testament.

Blessed are those whom my zeal inflames!

He who gives to the poor lends to God.

The good we do perfumes the soul;

We always remember it a little!

 

In the evening, at the threshold of his home,

Happy is he who still knows

Picking up a crying child

Like a miser with a gold sequin.
