As conflagrations light up a whole city, so revolutions illuminate the whole human race. And what is the revolution that we shall cause? the Revolution of the True.

Enjolras speaks like someone who has turned belief into a bloodstream. The simile,fire lighting a city,makes revolution feel radiant and dangerous at the same time. In the story, the young idealists are surrounded by suffering and feel morally cornered into action. Enjolras isn’t praising chaos; he’s insisting the goal is truth, not merely power. The emotion is Hopeful because he imagines history bending toward something cleaner than cynicism. Even if you don’t share his certainty, the longing behind it is recognizable: a hunger for a world that doesn’t grind people down. The phrase “Revolution of the True” is also a kind of self-check, a reminder that violence without truth becomes just another form of domination. If you’ve ever been tired of half-truths and polite lies, this line feels like fresh air. It turns hope into a discipline, not just a feeling.
