The joy they contain must escape in light through the stones of the walls and shine dimly into the darkness. It is impossible that this sacred festival of destiny should not send a celestial radiation to the infinite. Love is the sublime crucible in which is consummated the fusion of man and woman; the one being, the triple being, the final being-- the human trinity springs from it. This birth of two souls into one space must be an emotion for space. The lover is priest; the apprehensive maiden submits. Something of this joy goes to God. Where there really is marriage, that is to say, where there is love, the ideal is mingled with it. A nuptial bed makes a halo in the darkness. Were it given to the eye of the flesh to perceive the fearful and enchanting sights of the superior life, it is likely that we should see the forms of night, the winged stranger, the blue travelers of the invisible, bending, a throng of shadowy heads, over the luminous house, pleased, blessing, showing to one another the sweetly startled maiden bride and wearing the reflection of the human felicity on their divine countenances. If at that supreme hour, the wedded pair, bewildered with pleasure, and believing themselves alone, were to listen, they would hear in their room a rustling of confused wings. Perfect happiness implies the solidarity of the angels. That obscure little alcove has for its ceiling the whole heavens. When two mouths, made sacred by love, draw near to each other to create, it is impossible, that above that ineffable kiss there should not be a thrill in the immense mystery of the stars.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Victor Hugo" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/victor-hugo/there-must-be-a-glowing-light-above-such-houses-the-joy-they-contain/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/d1f/victor-hugo-32_darkness_there-must-be-a-glowing-light-above-such_1862414.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/d1f/victor-hugo-32_darkness_there-must-be-a-glowing-light-above-such_1862414.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/d1f/victor-hugo-32_darkness_there-must-be-a-glowing-light-above-such_1862414.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“There must be a glowing light above such houses.
