More quotes by Giacomo Casanova
I have lived as a philosopher and die as a Christian.
Giacomo Casanova
Love is three quarters curiosity.
Giacomo Casanova
Those who do not love life do not deserve it.
Giacomo Casanova
A man who makes known his love by words is a fool.
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
If you want to make people laugh, your face must remain serious.
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
The sweetest pleasures are those which are hardest to be won.
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
Be the flame, not the moth.
Giacomo Casanova
I always made my food congenial to my constitution, and my health was always excellent.
Giacomo Casanova
I learned very early that our health is always impaired by some excess either of food or abstinence, and I never had any physician except myself.
Giacomo Casanova
We avenge intelligence when we deceive a fool, and the victory is worth the trouble
Giacomo Casanova
Whether happy or unhappy, life is the only treasure man possesses.
Giacomo Casanova
Hope is nothing but a deceitful flatterer accepted by reason only because it is often in need of palliatives.
Giacomo Casanova
In fact, to gull a fool seems to me an exploit worthy of a witty man.
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
I don't conquer, I submit.
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
There is no such thing as destiny. We ourselves shape our lives.
Giacomo Casanova
