Honore de Balzac
No frozen-hearted woman ever I laid eyes on but has made duty her religion.
Honore de Balzac
The boor covers himself, the rich man or the fool adorns himself, and the elegant man gets dressed.
Honore de Balzac
Once she has committed sin, there is nothing left for the Protestant woman, whereas the Catholic Church, hope of forgiveness makes a woman sublime.
Honore de Balzac
He hesitated till the last moment, but finally dropped them in the box, saying, I shall win!--the cry of a gambler, the cry of the great general, the compulsive cry that has ruined more men than it has ever saved.
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
