More quotes by Honore de Balzac
France is a country that loves to change their government if it is always the same.
Honore de Balzac
The duration of a couple's passion is in proportion to the woman's original resistance or to the obstacles that social hazards have placed in the way of her happiness.
Honore de Balzac
Whoever does not visit Paris regularly will never really be elegant.
Honore de Balzac
As a rule, only the poor are generous.
Honore de Balzac
Women, perhaps even require a little hypocrisy.
Honore de Balzac
Our most bitter enemies are our own kith and kin. Kings have no brothers, no sons, no mother!
Honore de Balzac
While seeking out the dead, I see nothing but the living.
Honore de Balzac
Everybody all over the world takes a wife's estimate into account in forming an opinion of a man.
Honore de Balzac
Remorse is impotence, impotence which sins again. Repentance alone is powerful it ends all.
Honore de Balzac
Some day you will find out that there is far more happiness in another's happiness than in your own.
Honore de Balzac
In smart society men are jealous of one another after the fashion of women.
Honore de Balzac
A woman questions the man who loves exactly as a judge questions a criminal. This being so, a flash of the eye, a mere word, an inflection of the voice or a moment's hesitation suffice to expose the fact, betrayal or crime he is attempting to conceal.
Honore de Balzac
Imagination helps the realism of every detail, and only sees the beauties of the work.
Honore de Balzac
Hatred like love feeds on the merest trifles.
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
Women see everything or nothing according to the inclination of their hearts. Love is their sole light.
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
The motto of chivalry is also the motto of wisdom to serve all, but love only one.
Honore de Balzac
People exaggerate both happiness and unhappiness we are never so fortunate nor so unfortunate as people say we are.
Honore de Balzac
A man is a poor creature compared to a woman.
Honore de Balzac
