More quotes by Honore de Balzac
Marriage is an institution necessary to the maintenance of society but contrary to the laws of nature.
Honore de Balzac
A good husband is never the first to go to sleep at night or the last to awake in the morning.
Honore de Balzac
Bankers are lynxes. To expect any gratitude from them is equivalent to attempting to move the wolves of the Ukraine to pity in the middle of winter.
Honore de Balzac
If the human heart sometimes finds moments of pause as it ascends the slopes of affection, it rarely halts on the way down.
Honore de Balzac
Life in clubs is no paltry sign of the times we live in. Here gentlemen gamble with others whom they would not dream of inviting to their homes.
Honore de Balzac
Love is perhaps no more than gratitude for pleasure.
Honore de Balzac
Let passion reach a catastrophe and it submits us to an intoxicating force far more powerful than the niggardly irritation of wine or of opium. The lucidity our ideas then achieve, and the delicacy of our overly exalted sensations, produce the strangest and most unexpected effects.
Honore de Balzac
Women are tenacious, and all of them should be tenacious of respect without esteem they cannot exist esteem is the first demand that they make of love.
Honore de Balzac
The weakest being on earth can accomplish feats of strength. The frailest urchin will ring every doorbell on the street in arctic weather or hoist himself aloft to inscribe his name on a virgin monument.
Honore de Balzac
Those sweetly smiling angels with pensive looks, innocent faces, and cash-boxes for hearts.
Honore de Balzac
No woman has ever existed who did not know perfectly well in her heart what to expect from the superiority or inferiority of a rival.
Honore de Balzac
Love is the poetry of the senses.
Honore de Balzac
First love is a kind of vaccination which saves a man from catching the complaint the second time.
Honore de Balzac
Our worst misfortunes never happen, and most miseries lie in anticipation.
Honore de Balzac
Solitude is fine, but you need someone to tell you that solitude is fine.
Honore de Balzac
Courtesy is only a thin veneer on the general selfishness.
Honore de Balzac
Admiration bestowed upon any one but ourselves is always tedious.
Honore de Balzac
Are not poets men who fulfill their hopes prematurely?
Honore de Balzac
In a world of hunchbacks, a fine figure becomes a monstrosity.
Honore de Balzac
Doubt follows white-winged hope with trembling steps.
Honore de Balzac
