There is a line of thoughts connection between the values and the morals of "Les Miserables" of Victor Hugo, the French Genius and The reality of the Egyptian Life nowadays. I will go through some famous quotes of the novel thanks to @LesMis_bot and make the connection between what's happening to Egyptians and "Les Miserables".
@LesMis_bot "Every Man will Be A king"! It is true at the time of the revolution , all Egyptians felt the pride of controlling their destiny, the idea was very much appealing, I won't get into the debate of whether you are pro or anti revolution but believe me, At the time of the revolution , the quote was "Rise your Head High, You are an Egyptian" was a slogan.
@LesMis_bot: "I had a dream my life would be so different from this hell I'm living! #Fantine "All Egyptians after the revolution had high hopes, they were dreaming of a better society, of a better tomorrow but unfortunately the opposite happened, things got worse, Egyptians got poorer, more miserable, less secure, less tolerant and more divided. The rosy world ended with useless Referendums and Theatrical Elections that took more of the Egyptians than it gave them.
@LesMis_bot: "If I speak I am condemned. If I stay silence I am damned! #Valjean " The Couch Party in Egypt "Kanaba" who weren't truly pro or Anti Mubarak, their contribution to their reality is always misperceived and are always pushed to the sideline by politicians despite the flux that's happened in Egypt and which gives the right for everyone to protect his interests and beliefs
@LesMis_bot: He knows his way in the dark. Mine is the way of the Lord. #Javert . Religion is abused in the political scene in Egypt and was used explicitly in the post-revolution era to re-define the political spectrum through the Paradigm of "God" and "Anti-God"
@LesMis_bot: "Nothing changes. Nothing ever will." Te reality that Egypt didn't get any better after he revolution and unfortunately the way the new system developed will assure that the country just changed the Name Tag of the President ,nothing more nothing less. There are no improvements whatsoever in the health,education,quality of life of Egyptians.
@LesMis_bot: "One more dawn, one more day, one day more!" Just to end the blog because we can go forever ; the value of "mercy" and "forgetfulness" is what Egyptians need now to protect the Egyptian identity and unity.
