George Sand
Admiration and familiarity are strangers.
George Sand
If people were not wicked I should not mind their being stupid but, to our misfortune, they are both.
George Sand

George Sand
Vanity is the most despotic and iniquitous of masters, and I can never be the slave of my own vices.
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
Nothing resembles selfishness more closely than self-respect
George Sand
Ever since time began the world has seemed stupid to those who aren't stupid themselves. It was to avoid that annoyance that I became stupid myself, as fast as ever I could. Sheer egoism, no doubt.
George Sand
The trade of authorship is a violent, and indestructible obsession.
George Sand
It is high time that we had lights that are not incendiary torches.
George Sand
