271: Victor Hugo

“It is better to reenter hell and become an angel, than to remain in heaven and become a demon.” —Victor Hugo

Read it again. That’s pretty profound.

270: Byron

“No ear can hear nor tongue can tell the tortures of the inward hell!” —Byron

But it doesn’t keep them from trying.

269: Hitler

“Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and the other way round.” —Hitler

That was his plan, anyway, but he ended up on fire in a pit …which is most people’s vision of hell.
