Alphonse de Lamartine
The loss of a mother is always keenly felt, even if her health be such as to incapacitate her from taking an active part in the care of the family. She is the sweet rallying-point for affection, obedience, and a thousand tendernesses. Dreary the blank when she is withdrawn!
Alphonse de Lamartine
At twenty every one is republican.
Alphonse de Lamartine

Alphonse de Lamartine
If one had but a single glance to give the world, one should gaze on Istanbul.

Sentiment is the poetry of the imagination.
Alphonse de Lamartine
Experience is the only prophecy of wise men.
Alphonse de Lamartine
Exquisite beauty resides rather in the female form than face, where it is also more lasting.
