More quotes by Giacomo Casanova
It is only necessary to have courage, for strength without self-confidence is useless.
Giacomo Casanova
I have felt in my very blood, ever since I was born, a most unconquerable hatred towards the whole tribe of fools, and it arises from the fact that I feel myself a blockhead whenever I am in their company.
Giacomo Casanova
I leave to others the decision as to the good or evil tendencies of my character, but such as it is it shines upon my countenance, and there it can easily be detected by any physiognomist.
Giacomo Casanova
I always made my food congenial to my constitution, and my health was always excellent.
Giacomo Casanova
To lead a blameless life you must curb your passions , and whatever misfortune may befall you cannot be ascribed by anyone to want of good luck, or attributed to fate these words are devoid of sense, and all fault will rightly fall on your own head.
Giacomo Casanova
Since, though I do not repent my amorous exploits, I am far from wanting my example to contribute to the corruption of the fair sex, which deserves our homage for so many reasons, I hope that my observations will foster prudence in fathers and mothers and thus at least deserve their esteem.
Giacomo Casanova
The reader of these Memoirs will discover that I never had any fixed aim before my eyes, and that my system, if it can be called a system, has been to glide away unconcernedly on the stream of life, trusting to the wind wherever it led.
Giacomo Casanova
If you want to make people laugh, your face must remain serious.
Giacomo Casanova
A man who makes known his love by words is a fool.
Giacomo Casanova
one who makes no mistakes makes nothing
Giacomo Casanova
I have always had such sincere love for truth, that I have often begun by telling stories for the purpose of getting truth to enter the heads of those who could not appreciate its charms.
Giacomo Casanova
God ceases to be God only for those who can admit the possibility of His non-existence, and that conception is in itself the most severe punishment they can suffer.
Giacomo Casanova
There is no honest woman with an uncorrupted heart whom a man is not sure of conquering by dint of gratitude. It is one of the surest and shortest means.
Giacomo Casanova
Thence, I suppose, my natural disposition to make fresh acquaintances, and to break with them so readily, although always for a good reason, and never through mere fickleness.
Giacomo Casanova
Those who do not love life do not deserve it.
Giacomo Casanova
The man who seeks to educate himself must first read and then travel in order to correct what he has learned.
Giacomo Casanova
[Malipiero's advice to Casanova.] If you wish your audience to cry, you must shed tears yourself, but if you wish to make them laugh you must contrive to look as serious as a judge.
Giacomo Casanova
I have lived as a philosopher and die as a Christian.
Giacomo Casanova
My errors will point to thinking men the various roads, and will teach them the great art of treading on the brink of the precipice without falling into it.
Giacomo Casanova
Whether happy or unhappy, life is the only treasure man possesses.
Giacomo Casanova
