... everyone's free to embark on either a great clipper or a little fishing boat. An artist is an explorer who oughtn't to shrink from anything: it doesn't matter whether he goes to the left or the right -- his goal sanctifies all.

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
It is high time that we had lights that are not incendiary torches.
George Sand
Love without reverence and enthusiasm is only friendship.
George Sand

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
Humanity is outraged in me and with me.
George Sand
There is but on virtue--the eternal sacrifice of self.
George Sand
The trade of authorship is a violent, and indestructible obsession.
George Sand
Work is not man's punishment. It is his reward and his strength and his pleasure.
George Sand

George Sand
No religion can be built on force.
