More quotes by George Sand
I love everything that makes up a milieu, the rolling of the carriages and the noise of the workmen in Paris, the cries of a thousand birds in the country, the movement of the ships on the waters. I love also absolute, profound silence, and, in short, I love everything that is around me, no matter where I am.
George Sand

George Sand

George Sand
You see what stupid folk my publishers are but they are all alike.
George Sand

George Sand
Travelling is like a novel: it's what happens that counts.
George Sand
Love without reverence and enthusiasm is only friendship.
George Sand
Believe in no other God than the one who insists on justice and equality among men.
George Sand
There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.
George Sand
Life resembles a novel more often than novels resemble life.
George Sand
As far as I am concerned I would rather spend the rest of my life in prison than marry again.
George Sand
Genius, whether locked up in a cell or roaming at large, is always solitary.
George Sand
