A quote by Victor Hugo

{ written at 15:00 | 0 comments }
We all know the habit of cats of hesitating in an open doorway. Which of us has not said to a cat,'Well, come in if you want to'? There are men who, in moments when a decision is called for, hover uncertainty like a cat, at the risk of being crushed by the closing of the door. These cautious spirits may run greater risks than those who are more daring.

- Author Victor Hugo, Les Miserables (book8, chapter IV)
