More quotes by George Sand
The masses are still ungrateful or ignorant. They prefer murder, poisonings, and crimes generally to a literature possessed of style and feeling.
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
The artist vocation is to send light into the human heart.
George Sand
Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness.
George Sand
If people were not wicked I should not mind their being stupid but, to our misfortune, they are both.
George Sand
God has written in the law of nature that when two people are joined in love or friendship, one must always give his heart more perfectly than the other.
George Sand
Where love is absent there can be no woman.
George Sand
Believe in no other God than the one who insists on justice and equality among men.
George Sand
Art speaks only to the mind, whereas nature speaks to all the faculties.
George Sand
Some say that cats are devils, but they behave badly only when they are alone. When they are among us cats are angels.
George Sand
Whoever has loved once, knows all that life contains of sorrow and of joy.
George Sand
A cigar numbs sorrow and fills the solitary hours with a million gracious images.
George Sand
Simplicity is the most difficult thing to secure in this world it is the last limit of experience and the last effort of genius.
George Sand
Learned women are ridiculed because they put to shame unlearned men.
George Sand
I'm not full of virtues and noble qualities. I love, but I love strongly, exclusive, stedfasty.
George Sand
Ever since time began the world has seemed stupid to those who aren't stupid themselves. It was to avoid that annoyance that I became stupid myself, as fast as ever I could. Sheer egoism, no doubt.
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
You don't have to write to me if you don't feel like it. There's no real friendship without absolute freedom.
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
Life is a slate where all our sins are written from time to time we rub the sponge of repentance over it so we can begin sinning again.
George Sand
