George Sand

George Sand

George Sand
Simplicity is the essence of the great, the true, the beautiful in art.
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
The trade of authorship is a violent, and indestructible obsession.
George Sand

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
Nothing resembles selfishness more closely than self-respect
George Sand
The whole secret of the study of nature lies in learning how to use one's eyes.
George Sand
Weeds are omnipresent errors are to be found in the heart of the most lovable.
George Sand
There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.
George Sand
