Summary

This quote suggests that the middle ground, or trying to please everyone, is a poor position to be in. Just like driving on the white line is dangerous because it leaves little room for error, remaining non-committal and avoiding taking a stance can be detrimental. It implies that standing firmly on one side or making decisions based solely on popular demand may be more effective and beneficial, compared to remaining in a neutral, indecisive state.

Slowly he took out the clothes in which, ten years beforem Cosette had left Montfermeil; first the little dress, then the black scarf, then the great heavy child's shoes Cosette could still almost have worn, so small was her foot, then the vest of very thich fustian, then the knitted petticoat, the the apron with pockets, then the wool stockings.... Then his venerable white head fell on the bed, this old stoical heart broke, his face was swallowed up, so to speak, in Cosette's clothes, and anybody who had passed along the staircase at that moment would have heard irrepressible sobbing.

Anarchists are mouthpieces of a declining stratum of society; when they work themselves into a state of righteous indignation demanding 'rights', 'justice', 'equal rights', they are just acting under the pressure of their own lack of culture, which has no way of grasping why they really suffer, or what they lack in life.
