More quotes by George Sand
Talent, will and genius are natural phenomena like the lake, the volcano, the mountain, the wind, the star, the cloud.
George Sand
Try to keep your soul young and quivering right up to old age, and to imagine right up to the brink of death that life is only beginning. I think that is the only way to keep adding to one's talent, and one's inner happiness.
George Sand
Age continually alters the faces of those who think or study, and so their portraits differ from one another and don't even resemble them for very long. I dream so much and live so little that I'm sometimes only three years old. But the next day I'm three hundred, if the dream has been sombre.
George Sand
The lessons of experience are always learned too late.
George Sand
As far as I am concerned I would rather spend the rest of my life in prison than marry again.
George Sand
Our work can never be better than we are ourselves.
George Sand
To forgive a fault in another is more sublime than to be faultless one's self.
George Sand
There is only one sex. A man and a woman are so entirely the same thing that one can scarcely understand the subtle reasons for sex distinctions with which our minds are filled.
George Sand
O heart! love is thy bane and thy antidote.
George Sand
Simplicity is the essence of the great, the true, the beautiful in art.
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
The intellect seeks, the heart finds.
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
Work is not man's punishment. It is his reward and his strength and his pleasure.
George Sand
I'm not full of virtues and noble qualities. I love, but I love strongly, exclusive, stedfasty.
George Sand
Happiness lies in the consciousness we have of it.
George Sand
almost all novels are love stories.
George Sand
A cigar numbs sorrow and fills the solitary hours with a million gracious images.
George Sand
I know that I have found fulfillment. I have an object in life, a task ... a passion.
George Sand
Death must no longer be either the penalty for prosperity or the consolation of misery. God did not destine it to be either the punishment or the compensation for life.
George Sand
