No place is ugly to those who understand the virtues and sweetness of everything that God has made.
George Sand
The trade of authorship is a violent, and indestructible obsession.
George Sand

George Sand

George Sand
Learned women are ridiculed because they put to shame unlearned men.
George Sand

George Sand

George Sand
Life resembles a novel more often than novels resemble life.
George Sand
Work is not man's punishment. It is his reward and his strength and his pleasure.
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
honesty dies in selling itself.
George Sand
There is but on virtue--the eternal sacrifice of self.
George Sand
A cigar numbs sorrow and fills the solitary hours with a million gracious images.
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
If people were not wicked I should not mind their being stupid but, to our misfortune, they are both.
George Sand
