More quotes by George Sand
Humanity is outraged in me and with me.
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
There is but on virtue--the eternal sacrifice of self.
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
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
Try to keep your soul young and quivering right up to old age, and to imagine right up to the brink of death that life is only beginning. I think that is the only way to keep adding to one's talent, and one's inner happiness.
George Sand
The lessons of experience are always learned too late.
George Sand
Know how to replace in your heart, by the happiness of those you love, the happiness that may be wanting to yourself
George Sand
Punctuation has its own philosophy, just as style does, although not as language does. Style is a good understanding of language, punctuation is a good understanding of style.
George Sand
Gossiping is the plague of little towns.
George Sand
The most honest of men is the one who thinks and acts best, but the most powerful is the one who writes and speaks best.
George Sand
Admiration and familiarity are strangers.
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
To eat together is one of the greatest promoters of intimacy. It is the satisfaction in common of a material necessity of existence, and if you seek a loftier meaning in it, it is a communion.
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
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
Nothing resembles selfishness more closely than self-respect
George Sand
We do not precisely enjoy liberty at the Figaro. M. de Latouche, our worthy director (ah! you should know the fellow), is always hanging over us, cutting, pruning, right or wrong, imposing upon us his whims, his aberrations, his fancies, and we have to write as he bids.
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
