More quotes by Giacomo Casanova
If you want to make people laugh, your face must remain serious.
Giacomo Casanova
The philosopher is a person who refuses no pleasures which do not produce greater sorrows, and who knows how to create new ones.
Giacomo Casanova
I have often met with happiness after some imprudent step which ought to have brought ruin upon me, and although passing a vote of censure upon myself I would thank God for his mercy.
Giacomo Casanova
If you have not done things worthy of being written about, at least write things worthy of being read.
Giacomo Casanova
I loved, I was loved, my health was good, I had a great deal of money, and I spent it, I was happy and I confessed it to myself.
Giacomo Casanova
When a man gets it into his head to do something, and when he exclusively occupies himself in that design, he must succeed, whatever the difficulties. That man will become Grand Vizier or Pope.
Giacomo Casanova
The story she had told me was possible, but it was not believable.
Giacomo Casanova
Whether happy or unhappy, life is the only treasure man possesses.
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 have lived as a philosopher and die as a Christian.
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
We love without heeding reason, and cease to love in the same manner.
Giacomo Casanova
They are the follies inherent to youth I make sport of them, and, if you are kind, you will not yourself refuse them a good-natured smile.
Giacomo Casanova
Love is a great poet, its resources are inexhaustible, but if the end it has in view is not obtained, it feels weary and remains silent.
Giacomo Casanova
There is no such thing as destiny. We ourselves shape our lives.
Giacomo Casanova
Should I perchance still feel after my death, I would no longer have any doubt, but I would most certainly give the lie to anyone asserting before me that I was dead.
Giacomo Casanova
When a sonnet is mediocre it is bad, for it should be sublime.
Giacomo Casanova
Man is free, but his freedom ceases when he has no faith in it and the greater power he ascribes to faith, the more he deprives himself of that power which God has given to him when He endowed him with the gift of reason.
Giacomo Casanova
Praise the beautiful for their intelligence and the intelligent for their beauty.
Giacomo Casanova
I don't conquer, I submit.
Giacomo Casanova
