More quotes by Honore de Balzac
God is the author, men are only the players. These grand pieces which are played upon earth have been composed in heaven.
Honore de Balzac

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

Honore de Balzac
An unfulfilled vocation drains the color from a man's entire existence.
Honore de Balzac
Ah! how much a mother learns from her child! The constant protection of a helpless being forces us to so strict an alliance with virtue, that a woman never shows to full advantage except as a mother. Then alone can her character expand in the fulfillment of all life's duties and the enjoyment of all its pleasures.
Honore de Balzac
A penniless man who has no ties to bind him is master of himself at any rate, but a luckless wretch who is in love no longer belongs to himself, and may not take his own life. Love makes us almost sacred in our own eyes it is the life of another that we revere within us then and so begins for us the cruelest trouble of all.
Honore de Balzac
In a world of hunchbacks, a fine figure becomes a monstrosity.
Honore de Balzac
A knowledge of mankind and of things that surround us gives us that second education which proves far move valuable than our first because it alone turns out a truly accomplished man.
Honore de Balzac
The more you judge, the less you love.
Honore de Balzac
Love is a religion, and its rituals cost more than those of other religions. It goes by quickly and, like a street urchin, it likes to mark its passage by a trail of devastation.
Honore de Balzac
