More quotes by Alfred de Musset
How glorious it is - and also how painful - to be an exception.
Alfred de Musset
Nothing is a sin when you obey the orders of a priest
Alfred de Musset
The apartments of the rich are cabinets of curiosities: a conglomeration of classical antiquity, gothic, renaissance Louis XIII... Something from every century but our own, a predicament that has arisen in no other period... so that we seem to be subsisting on the ruins of the past, as if the end of the world were near.
Alfred de Musset
There is no worse sorrow than remembering happiness in the day of sorrow.
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
In love matters keep your pen from paper.
Alfred de Musset
With a kiss let us set out for an unknown world.

Alfred de Musset
Become corrupt, corrupt, and you will cease to suffer! This has been the cry of all cities to man.
Alfred de Musset
The most despairing songs are the most beautiful, and I know some immortal ones that are pure tears.
Alfred de Musset
The blood of my motherland waters a magic plant that cures all ills. That plant is art, and sometimes art needs corruption as a kind of fertilizer
Alfred de Musset
Take time as it comes, the wind as it blows, woman as she is.
Alfred de Musset
Oh! my friend, when you feel bursting on your lips the vow of eternal love, do not be afraid to yield, but do not confound wine with intoxication do not think the cup divine because the draft is of celestial flavor do not be astonished to find it broken and empty in the evening.
Alfred de Musset
