More quotes by George Sand
The masses are still ungrateful or ignorant. They prefer murder, poisonings, and crimes generally to a literature possessed of style and feeling.
George Sand
And I refused to make any sacrifices for nothing on earth seemed more valuable than my peace of mind, my pleasure and my acclaim.
George Sand
Work is not man's punishment. It is his reward and his strength and his pleasure.
George Sand

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
Genius, whether locked up in a cell or roaming at large, is always solitary.
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
The marriage vow is an absurdity imposed by society.
George Sand
honesty dies in selling itself.
George Sand
almost all novels are love stories.
George Sand
Art speaks only to the mind, whereas nature speaks to all the faculties.
George Sand
a woman, when she is heroic, is not heroic by halves.
George Sand
Vanity is the quicksand of reason.
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
Our work can never be better than we are ourselves.
George Sand
faith is like love when you want it you can't find it, and you find it when you least expect it.
George Sand
Simplicity is the most difficult thing to secure in this world it is the last limit of experience and the last effort of genius.
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
To be made evident, truth must be sought for for of itself it is slow to appear, and between ourselves and God the obstacles are so many!
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
