More quotes by Andre Maurois
A gentleman is never in a hurry.
Andre Maurois
Old age is far more than white hair, wrinkles, the feeling that it is too late and the game finished, that the stage belongs to the rising generations. The true evil is not the weakening of the body, but the indifference of the soul.
Andre Maurois
He who has found a good wife has found great happiness, but a quarrelsome woman is like a roof that lets in the rain.
Andre Maurois
We appreciate frankness from those who like us. Frankness from others is called insolence.
Andre Maurois
Without a family, man, alone in the world, trembles with the cold.
Andre Maurois
Self-pity comes so naturally to all of us.
Andre Maurois
Our minds have unbelievable power over our bodies.
Andre Maurois

Andre Maurois
We don't love a woman for what she says, we like what she says because we love her.
Andre Maurois
Self-pity comes so naturally to all of us. The most solid happiness can be shaken by the compassion of a fool.
Andre Maurois
Medicine is a very old joke, but it still goes on.
Andre Maurois
Either the soul is immortal and we shall not die, or it perishes with the flesh and we shall not know that we are dead. Live, then, as if you were eternal.
Andre Maurois
If you create a character, you create a destiny.
Andre Maurois
Housekeeping in common is for women the acid test.
Andre Maurois
Every ten years you should delete from your mind a few ideas that your experience has proven to be false.
Andre Maurois
The need to express one's self in writing springs from a maladjustment of life, or from an inner conflict which the adolescent (or the grown man) cannot resolve in action.
Andre Maurois
When you become used to never being alone, you may consider yourself Americanised
Andre Maurois
Experience is valuable only when it has brought suffering and when the suffering has left its mark upon both body and mind.
Andre Maurois
Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year's time, will be forgotten by us and by everybody. No, let us devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring undertakings.
Andre Maurois
To reason with poorly chosen words is like using a pair of scales with inaccurate weights.
Andre Maurois
