More quotes by Honore de Balzac
Vice is perhaps a desire to learn everything.
Honore de Balzac
A young bride is like a plucked flower but a guilty wife is like a flower that had been walked over.
Honore de Balzac
Manners are the hypocrisy of a nation.
Honore de Balzac
A monster which devours everything - that is familiarity.
Honore de Balzac
Liberty begets anarchy, anarchy leads to despotism, and despotism brings about liberty once again. Millions of human beings have perished without being able to make any of these systems triumph.
Honore de Balzac
One should believe in marriage as in the immortality of the soul.
Honore de Balzac
Love is precisely to the moral nature what the sun is to the earth.
Honore de Balzac
True love is eternal, infinite, and always like itself. It is equal and pure, without violent demonstrations: it is seen with white hairs and is always young in the heart.
Honore de Balzac
Self-interest is an ineffable feeling which shall follow us into God's very presence since they say there is a hierarchy even among the Holy Saints.
Honore de Balzac
Rich men are resolved to be astonished at nothing. When they see a masterpiece, they must needs at one glance recognize some flaw to dispense them from admiration, a vulgar emotion.
Honore de Balzac
Incurable wounds are those inflicted by tongue and eye, by mockery and disdain.
Honore de Balzac
The causes that govern the heart appear to be wholly alien to the results achieved. Are the forces that moved a desperate criminal the same that fill a martyr with pride, as both mount the scaffold?
Honore de Balzac
The majority of husbands remind me of an orangutan trying to play the violin.
Honore de Balzac
The passion of love is essentially selfish, while motherhood widens the circle of our feelings.
Honore de Balzac
Kindness is not without its rocks ahead. People are apt to put it down to an easy temper and seldom recognize it as the secret striving of a generous nature whilst, on the other hand, the ill-natured get credit for all the evil they refrain from.
Honore de Balzac
A married woman is a slave you must know how to seat upon a throne.
Honore de Balzac
Marriage is a fight to the death. Before contracting it, the two parties concerned implore the benediction of Heaven because to promise to love each other forever is the rashest of enterprises.
Honore de Balzac
At fifteen, beauty and talent do not exist there can only be promise of the coming woman.
Honore de Balzac
I am not deep, but I am very wide.
Honore de Balzac
Thought is a key to all treasures the miser's gains are ours without his cares. Thus I have soared above this world, where my enjoyments have been intellectual joys.
