    American lawyer and political leader‚ Robert Green Ingersoll‚ once said that “kindness is the sunshine in which virtue grows.” In book one‚ “Fantine‚” in the novel Les Miserables‚ author Victor Hugo uses the helpless and beast-like character of Jean Valjean to demonstrate that when an individual‚ at his lowest point of being‚ is exposed to kindness‚ he may rise up and become virtuous‚ so that he may help others achieve this virtue in return.
