More quotes by Alfred de Musset

Alfred de Musset

Alfred de Musset

Alfred de Musset

Alfred de Musset
A lively retrospect summons back to us once more our youth, with vivid reflex of its early joys and unstained pleasures.
Alfred de Musset
I could not clearly distinguish what was passing in my head it seemed to me that I was under the influence of a horrible dream and that I had but to awake to find myself cured at times it seemed that my entire life had been a dream, ridiculous and childish, the falseness of which had just been disclosed.
Alfred de Musset
It is easy to promise, and alas! How easy to forget!
Alfred de Musset
Partake of love as a temperate man partakes of wine do not become intoxicated.
Alfred de Musset
[I]f you are truly a man, sure of yourself and confident of your strength, you may taste of life without fear and without reserve you may be sad or joyous, deceived or respected but be sure you are loved, for what matters the rest?
Alfred de Musset
The glass I drink from is not large, but at least it is my own.
Alfred de Musset
Memory is what makes us young or old.
Alfred de Musset
I can't help it, the idea of the infinite torments me.
Alfred de Musset
