More quotes by George Sand
It is high time that we had lights that are not incendiary torches.
George Sand
Vanity is the quicksand of reason.
George Sand
The intellect seeks, the heart finds.
George Sand
honesty dies in selling itself.
George Sand
Life resembles a novel more often than novels resemble life.
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
Celebrate within yourself that wonderful treasure . . . true kindness.
George Sand
Where love is absent there can be no woman.
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
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
O heart! love is thy bane and thy antidote.
George Sand
I have no enthusiasm for nature which the slightest chill will not instantly destroy.
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
Genius, whether locked up in a cell or roaming at large, is always solitary.
George Sand
The most honest of men is the one who thinks and acts best, but the most powerful is the one who writes and speaks best.
George Sand
Nowadays it seems that moral education is no longer considered necessary. Attention is wholly centered on intelligence, while the heart life is ignored.
George Sand
Humanity is outraged in me and with me.
George Sand
[Failure is hard initially because] One knows what one has lost, but not what one may find [and learn from that failure]!
George Sand
We must love stupid people better than ourselves are they not the really unfortunate ones of this world? Do not people without taste and without ideal grow constantly weary, rejoicing in nothing, and being quite useless here below?
George Sand
No human creature can give orders to love.
George Sand
