Honore de Balzac
A mother who is really a mother is never free.
Honore de Balzac
A woman questions the man who loves exactly as a judge questions a criminal. This being so, a flash of the eye, a mere word, an inflection of the voice or a moment's hesitation suffice to expose the fact, betrayal or crime he is attempting to conceal.
Honore de Balzac
Numbers are intellectual witnesses that belong only to mankind.
Honore de Balzac
The election of a deputy to the Legislature offers a noble and majestic spectacle comparable only to the delivery of a child. It involves the same efforts, the same impurities, the same laceration, and the same triumph.
Honore de Balzac
