More quotes by George Sand
To be made evident, truth must be sought for for of itself it is slow to appear, and between ourselves and God the obstacles are so many!
George Sand
A day will come when everything in my life will be changed, when I shall do good to others, when some one will love me, when I shall give my whole heart to the man whi gives ne his neanwhile, U will suffer in silence and keep my love as a reward for him who shall set me free.
George Sand

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
To forgive a fault in another is more sublime than to be faultless one's self.
George Sand
It is a mistake to regard age as a downhill grade toward dissolution. The reverse is true. As one grows older, one climbs with surprising strides.
George Sand
The more you lose the right to be jealous, the more so you become!

George Sand
Travelling is like a novel: it's what happens that counts.
George Sand
we do not die of anguish, we live on. We continue to suffer. We drink the cup drop by drop.
George Sand

George Sand
Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness.
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
Vanity is the quicksand of reason.
George Sand
Party politics is now a real farce.
George Sand
If they are ignorant, they are despised, if learned, mocked. In love they are reduced to the status of courtesans. As wives they are treated more as servants than as companions. Men do not love them: they make use of them, they exploit them, and expect, in that way, to make them subject to the law of fidelity.
George Sand
Weeds are omnipresent errors are to be found in the heart of the most lovable.
George Sand
The artist vocation is to send light into the human heart.
George Sand
