More quotes by George Sand
I would rather believe that God did not exist than believe that he was indifferent.
George Sand
When mental sickness increases until it reaches the danger point, do not exhaust yourself by efforts to trace back to original causes. Better accept them as inevitable and save your strength to fight against the effects.
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
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
Travelling is like a novel: it's what happens that counts.
George Sand
Nature distributes her favors unequally.
George Sand
Believe in no other God than the one who insists on justice and equality among men.
George Sand
It is always the best friends who are neglected and ignored.
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
Learned women are ridiculed because they put to shame unlearned men.
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
... love is too delicate a flower to rise again when one has trampled it under foot.
George Sand
Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness.
George Sand
Nowadays it seems that moral education is no longer considered necessary. Attention is wholly centered on intelligence, while the heart life is ignored.
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
I know that I have found fulfillment. I have an object in life, a task ... a passion.
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
The capacity for passion is both cruel and divine.
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
O heart! love is thy bane and thy antidote.
George Sand
