More quotes by Emile Zola
If I cannot overwhelm with my quality, I will overwhelm with my quantity.
Emile Zola
Since the same human mire remains beneath, does not all civilization reduce itself to the superiority of smelling nice and living well?
Emile Zola
They talked so, with secret hearts, without needing words, talking of other things... They could have suddenly continued their confessions aloud, without ceasing to understand each other.
Emile Zola
Art is a corner of creation seen through a temperament.
Emile Zola
The conclusion does not belong to the artist.
Emile Zola
The camembert with its venison scent defeats the Marolles and Limbourg dull smells It spreads its exhalation, smothering the other scents under its surprising breath abundance.
Emile Zola
When truth is buried, it grows. It chokes. It gathers such an explosive force that on the day it bursts out, it blows up everything with it.
Emile Zola
If people can just love each other a little bit, they can be so happy.
Emile Zola
It all seemed a hollow sham now - that strict code, that conscientious virtue that condemned her to the sterile joys of pious women! No, no, she'd had enough of that she wanted to live!
Emile Zola
In my view you cannot claim to have seen something until you have photographed it.
Emile Zola
Over all crowds there seems to float a vague distress, an atmosphere of pervasive melancholy, as if any large gathering of people creates an aura of terror and pity.
Emile Zola
I do not despair in the least of ultimate triumph. I repeat it with intense conviction.
Emile Zola
Art for me...is a negation of society, an affirmation of the individual, outside of all the rules and all the demands of society.
Emile Zola
The only basis for living is believing in life, loving it, and applying the whole force of one's intellect to know it better.
Emile Zola
What will be the death of me are buillabaisses, food spiced with pimiento, shellfish, and a load of exquisite rubbish which I eat in disproportionate quantities.
Emile Zola
The word realist means nothing to me, because I would subordinate reality to temperament. Give me what is true and I applaud but give me what is individual and alive and I applaud even more.
Emile Zola
It is not I who am strong, it is reason, it is truth.
Emile Zola
The past was but the cemetery of our illusions: one simply stubbed one's toes on the gravestones.
Emile Zola
The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work.
Emile Zola
They dared not peer down into their own natures, down into the feverish confusion that filled their minds with a kind of dense, acrid mist.
