The rich have a passion for bargains as lively as it is pointless.
Francoise Sagan
In love, as in finance, only the rich can get credit.
Francoise Sagan
He refused categorically all ideas of fidelity or serious commitments. He explained that they were arbitrary and sterile. From anyone else such views would have shocked me, but I knew that in his case they did not exclude tenderness and devotion - feelings which came all the more easily to him since he was determined that they should be transient.
Francoise Sagan
