More quotes by George Sand
almost all novels are love stories.
George Sand
You see what stupid folk my publishers are but they are all alike.
George Sand
The marriage vow is an absurdity imposed by society.
George Sand
Art speaks only to the mind, whereas nature speaks to all the faculties.
George Sand
Vanity is the most despotic and iniquitous of masters, and I can never be the slave of my own vices.
George Sand
I have no enthusiasm for nature which the slightest chill will not instantly destroy.
George Sand
Death must no longer be either the penalty for prosperity or the consolation of misery. God did not destine it to be either the punishment or the compensation for 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
Vanity is the quicksand of reason.
George Sand
Happiness lies in the consciousness we have of it.
George Sand
The more you lose the right to be jealous, the more so you become!
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
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
All your trouble comes from lack of exercise. A man of your strength and constitution ought always to have kept physically active. So don't jibe at the very wise advice that sentences you to one hour's walk a day. You imagine the work of the mind takes place only in the brain but you're much mistaken. It takes place in the legs as well.
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
Whoever has loved once, knows all that life contains of sorrow and of joy.
George Sand
Learned women are ridiculed because they put to shame unlearned men.
George Sand
The capacity for passion is both cruel and divine.
George Sand
Art belongs to all times and to all countries its special benefit is precisely to be still living when everything else seems dying that is why Providence shields it from too personal or too general passions, and grants it a patient and persevering organization, durable sensibility, and the contemplative sense in which lies invincible faith.
George Sand
I'm not full of virtues and noble qualities. I love, but I love strongly, exclusive, stedfasty.
George Sand
