More quotes by George Sand
I'm beginning to believe that there are angels disguised as men who pass themselves off as such and who inhabit the earth for a while to console and lift up with them toward heaven the poor, exhausted and saddened souls who were ready to perish here below.
George Sand
Simplicity is the essence of the great, the true, the beautiful in art.
George Sand
No one makes a revolution by himself and there are some revolutions which humanity accomplishes without quite knowing how, because it is everybody who takes them in hand.
George Sand
Love without reverence and enthusiasm is only friendship.
George Sand
We do not precisely enjoy liberty at the Figaro. M. de Latouche, our worthy director (ah! you should know the fellow), is always hanging over us, cutting, pruning, right or wrong, imposing upon us his whims, his aberrations, his fancies, and we have to write as he bids.
George Sand
I would rather believe that God did not exist than believe that he was indifferent.
George Sand
Experience is always a trustworthy guide it may not tell you everything, but it never lies.
George Sand
Years do not always make age.
George Sand
Our work can never be better than we are ourselves.
George Sand

George Sand
faith is like love when you want it you can't find it, and you find it when you least expect it.
George Sand
You see what stupid folk my publishers are but they are all alike.
George Sand
No place is ugly to those who understand the virtues and sweetness of everything that God has made.
George Sand
Talent, will and genius are natural phenomena like the lake, the volcano, the mountain, the wind, the star, the cloud.
George Sand

George Sand
Ah! that Senate is a world of ice and darkness! It votes the destruction of peoples as the simplest and wisest thing for its members themselves are moribund.
George Sand
No human being can control love, and no one is to blame either for feeling it or for losing it. What alone degrades a woman is falsehood.
George Sand
And I refused to make any sacrifices for nothing on earth seemed more valuable than my peace of mind, my pleasure and my acclaim.
George Sand
living for oneself is a bad thing. The keenest intellectual pleasure comes from being able to return to the self after being absent from it for a spell. But living all the time inside the self, that most tyrannical, demanding and capricious of companions - no, one shouldn't do it.
George Sand
Be prudent, and if you hear, * * * some insult or some threat, * * * have the appearance of not hearing it.
George Sand
