Hugo makes “To-morrow” feel like a living thing you can’t permanently lock out. The line is fierce because it says the future keeps arriving unless you remove yourself from life entirely. In the novel, despair often looks like resignation,accepting injustice as normal and calling that maturity. This sentence rejects resignation and treats hope as the natural direction of being alive. The emotion is Empowered because it doesn’t soothe; it pushes you upright. It also fits the book’s belief that people can change, but only if they keep stepping forward. If you’re in a season where you feel tempted to give up on improvement, this line is a sharp counterweight. It doesn’t promise ease; it promises movement. And sometimes movement is the first form of hope.
