More quotes by George Sand
The capacity for passion is both cruel and divine.
George Sand
O heart! love is thy bane and thy antidote.
George Sand
Art for art's sake is an empty phrase. Art for the sake of truth, art for the sake of the good and the beautiful, that is the faith I am searching for.
George Sand
Celebrate within yourself that wonderful treasure . . . true kindness.
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
It is high time that we had lights that are not incendiary torches.
George Sand
There is only one sex. A man and a woman are so entirely the same thing that one can scarcely understand the subtle reasons for sex distinctions with which our minds are filled.
George Sand
... love is too delicate a flower to rise again when one has trampled it under foot.
George Sand
I know that I have found fulfillment. I have an object in life, a task ... a passion.
George Sand
a woman, when she is heroic, is not heroic by halves.
George Sand
As far as I am concerned I would rather spend the rest of my life in prison than marry again.
George Sand
If they are ignorant, they are despised, if learned, mocked. In love they are reduced to the status of courtesans. As wives they are treated more as servants than as companions. Men do not love them: they make use of them, they exploit them, and expect, in that way, to make them subject to the law of fidelity.
George Sand
honesty dies in selling itself.
George Sand
Life is a succession of afflictions for the heart.
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
Believe in no other God than the one who insists on justice and equality among men.
George Sand
Simplicity, a delicate silence about oneself, increases their worth and makes one love those whom one admires.
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 artist vocation is to send light into the human heart.
George Sand
There is but on virtue--the eternal sacrifice of self.
George Sand
