“To my mind, the work ahead of me is like a sea—a whole immense expanse of partly glimpsed ideas, newly begun writings, drafts, plans, half-seen designs, vague outlines, serious dramas, comedies, histories, poetry, philosophy, socialism, naturalism, an accumulation of drifting works into which my thoughts plunge without knowing whether they will come back again.”
Victor Hugo, manuscript note (1846).
