More quotes by George Sand
If people were not wicked I should not mind their being stupid but, to our misfortune, they are both.
George Sand
living for oneself is a bad thing. The keenest intellectual pleasure comes from being able to return to the self after being absent from it for a spell. But living all the time inside the self, that most tyrannical, demanding and capricious of companions - no, one shouldn't do it.
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
Art speaks only to the mind, whereas nature speaks to all the faculties.
George Sand
The old woman I shall become will be quite different from the woman I am now. Another I is beginning.
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
Vanity is the quicksand of reason.
George Sand
I have no enthusiasm for nature which the slightest chill will not instantly destroy.

Admiration and familiarity are strangers.
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
We do not precisely enjoy liberty at the Figaro. M. de Latouche, our worthy director (ah! you should know the fellow), is always hanging over us, cutting, pruning, right or wrong, imposing upon us his whims, his aberrations, his fancies, and we have to write as he bids.
George Sand
... love is too delicate a flower to rise again when one has trampled it under foot.
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
Vanity is the most despotic and iniquitous of masters, and I can never be the slave of my own vices.
George Sand
Gossiping is the plague of little towns.
George Sand
Where love is absent there can be no woman.
George Sand
To eat together is one of the greatest promoters of intimacy. It is the satisfaction in common of a material necessity of existence, and if you seek a loftier meaning in it, it is a communion.
George Sand
The artist vocation is to send light into the human heart.
George Sand
Travelling is like a novel: it's what happens that counts.
