George Sand

George Sand
The trade of authorship is a violent, and indestructible obsession.
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
Experience is always a trustworthy guide it may not tell you everything, but it never lies.
George Sand

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

George Sand

George Sand
A child motivated by competitive ideals will grow into a man without conscience, shame, or true dignity.
George Sand

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
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
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
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
O heart! love is thy bane and thy antidote.
George Sand
Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness.
George Sand
