More quotes by Honore de Balzac

Honore de Balzac

Honore de Balzac

Honore de Balzac
To say to a rich man: You are poor! is to tell the Archbishop of Granada that his sermons are worthless.
Honore de Balzac
Every moment of happiness requires a great amount of Ignorance
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
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
Memories beautify life, but the capacity to forget makes it bearable.
Honore de Balzac
Towns find it as hard as houses of business to rise again from ruin.
Honore de Balzac
The greatest tyranny is to love I where we are not loved again.
Honore de Balzac
Marriage must fight constantly against a monster which devours everything: routine.
