Nature distributes her favors unequally.
George Sand
Image
Talent, will and genius are natural phenomena like the lake, the volcano, the mountain, the wind, the star, the cloud.
George Sand
Image
Work is not man's punishment. It is his reward and his strength and his pleasure.
George Sand
Image
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
Image
I love everything that makes up a milieu, the rolling of the carriages and the noise of the workmen in Paris, the cries of a thousand birds in the country, the movement of the ships on the waters. I love also absolute, profound silence, and, in short, I love everything that is around me, no matter where I am.

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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
The lessons of experience are always learned too late.

Image
O heart! love is thy bane and thy antidote.
George Sand

Image
It is high time that we had lights that are not incendiary torches.
George Sand
Image
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
Image
we do not die of anguish, we live on. We continue to suffer. We drink the cup drop by drop.
George Sand
Image
Heavens! whatever possesses us, here below, that we mutually torment ourselves, sourly reproach our mutual faults, and mercilessly condemn all that is not cut according to our pattern?
George Sand
Image
The whole secret of the study of nature lies in learning how to use one's eyes.
George Sand
Image
Learned women are ridiculed because they put to shame unlearned men.

Years do not always make age.
