More quotes by George Sand
... love is too delicate a flower to rise again when one has trampled it under foot.
George Sand
a woman, when she is heroic, is not heroic by halves.
George Sand
Happiness lies in the consciousness we have of it.
George Sand
Be prudent, and if you hear, * * * some insult or some threat, * * * have the appearance of not hearing it.
George Sand
No one makes a revolution by himself and there are some revolutions which humanity accomplishes without quite knowing how, because it is everybody who takes them in hand.
George Sand
I have no enthusiasm for nature which the slightest chill will not instantly destroy.
George Sand
O heart! love is thy bane and thy antidote.
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
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 trade of authorship is a violent, and indestructible obsession.
George Sand
Life resembles a novel more often than novels resemble life.
George Sand
Vanity is the most despotic and iniquitous of masters, and I can never be the slave of my own vices.
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
Nothing resembles selfishness more closely than self-respect
George Sand
No religion can be built on force.
George Sand
The lessons of experience are always learned too late.
George Sand
The marriage vow is an absurdity imposed by society.
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
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
Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness.
George Sand
