More quotes by Giacomo Casanova
Be the flame, not the moth.
Giacomo Casanova
We love without heeding reason, and cease to love in the same manner.
Giacomo Casanova
As to the deceit perpetrated upon women, let it pass, for, when love is in the way, men and women as a general rule dupe each other.
Giacomo Casanova
I don't conquer, I submit.
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 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
Man is free yet we must not suppose that he is at liberty to do everything he pleases, for he becomes a slave the moment he allows his actions to be ruled by passion.
Giacomo Casanova
A man who makes known his love by words is a fool.
Giacomo Casanova
Beauty without wit offers nothing but the enjoyment of its material charms, whilst witty ugliness captivates by the charms of the mind, and at last fulfils all the desires of the man it has captivated.
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
The pleasure I gave my lovers was a four fifth of the pleasure I experienced.
Giacomo Casanova
Love is three quarters curiosity.
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
If you have not done things worthy of being written about, at least write things worthy of being read.
Giacomo Casanova
In the mean time I worship God, laying every wrong action under an interdict which I endeavour to respect, and I loathe the wicked without doing them any injury.
Giacomo Casanova
I found that the writer who says SUBLATA LUCERNA NULLUM DISCRIMEN INTER MULIERES ('when the lamp is taken away, all women are alike') says true but without love, this great business is a vile thing.
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
Hope is nothing but a deceitful flatterer accepted by reason only because it is often in need of palliatives.
Giacomo Casanova
The story she had told me was possible, but it was not believable.
Giacomo Casanova
one who makes no mistakes makes nothing
