More quotes by George Sand
Genius, whether locked up in a cell or roaming at large, is always solitary.
George Sand
Years do not always make age.
George Sand
Vanity is the quicksand of reason.
George Sand
I would rather believe that God did not exist than believe that he was indifferent.
George Sand
No one makes a revolution by himself and there are some revolutions which humanity accomplishes without quite knowing how, because it is everybody who takes them in hand.
George Sand
All your trouble comes from lack of exercise. A man of your strength and constitution ought always to have kept physically active. So don't jibe at the very wise advice that sentences you to one hour's walk a day. You imagine the work of the mind takes place only in the brain but you're much mistaken. It takes place in the legs as well.
George Sand
A child motivated by competitive ideals will grow into a man without conscience, shame, or true dignity.
George Sand
The intellect seeks, the heart finds.
George Sand
Be prudent, and if you hear, * * * some insult or some threat, * * * have the appearance of not hearing it.
George Sand
The capacity for passion is both cruel and divine.
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 artist vocation is to send light into the human heart.
George Sand
No religion can be built on force.
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
Work is not man's punishment. It is his reward and his strength and his pleasure.
George Sand
Nature distributes her favors unequally.
George Sand
... love is too delicate a flower to rise again when one has trampled it under foot.
George Sand
Art belongs to all times and to all countries its special benefit is precisely to be still living when everything else seems dying that is why Providence shields it from too personal or too general passions, and grants it a patient and persevering organization, durable sensibility, and the contemplative sense in which lies invincible faith.
George Sand
Believe in no other God than the one who insists on justice and equality among men.
George Sand
almost all novels are love stories.
George Sand
