More quotes by George Sand
Life is a succession of afflictions for the heart.
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 more you lose the right to be jealous, the more so you become!
George Sand
Art speaks only to the mind, whereas nature speaks to all the faculties.
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
Life resembles a novel more often than novels resemble life.
George Sand
Years do not always make age.
George Sand
O heart! love is thy bane and thy antidote.
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
Know how to replace in your heart, by the happiness of those you love, the happiness that may be wanting to yourself
George Sand
Simplicity is the essence of the great, the true, the beautiful in art.
George Sand
There is but on virtue--the eternal sacrifice of self.
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
Some say that cats are devils, but they behave badly only when they are alone. When they are among us cats are angels.
George Sand
The marriage vow is an absurdity imposed by society.
George Sand
Death must no longer be either the penalty for prosperity or the consolation of misery. God did not destine it to be either the punishment or the compensation for life.
George Sand
Genius, whether locked up in a cell or roaming at large, is always solitary.
George Sand
I love everything that makes up a milieu, the rolling of the carriages and the noise of the workmen in Paris, the cries of a thousand birds in the country, the movement of the ships on the waters. I love also absolute, profound silence, and, in short, I love everything that is around me, no matter where I am.
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
