More quotes by Honore de Balzac
Glory is a poison, good to be taken in small doses.
Honore de Balzac
Le mariage doit incessamment combattre un monstre qui de v ore tout: l'habitude. Marriage should always combat the monster that devours everything: habit.
Honore de Balzac
Marriage must fight constantly against a monster which devours everything: routine.
Honore de Balzac
A jealous husband doesnt doubt his wife, but himself.
Honore de Balzac
Rich men are resolved to be astonished at nothing. When they see a masterpiece, they must needs at one glance recognize some flaw to dispense them from admiration, a vulgar emotion.
Honore de Balzac
With monuments as with men, position means everything.
Honore de Balzac
Beauty is the greatest of human powers. Any power without counterbalance or control becomes autocratic and leads to abuse and to folly. Despotism in a government is insanity in woman, fantasy.
Honore de Balzac
Like hunger, physical love is a necessity. But man's appetite for amour is never so regular or so sustained as his appetite for the delights of the table.
Honore de Balzac
Happiness lends poetic charms to woman, and dress adorns her like a delicate tinge of rouge.
Honore de Balzac
Nowhere but in France are people so strictly observant of great matters and so disdainfully indulgent about small ones.
Honore de Balzac
The national budget is not a safe-deposit box. It is a spray can.
Honore de Balzac
A sacrament by virtue of which each imparts nothing but vexations to the other.
Honore de Balzac
The fashions we call English in Paris are French in London, and vice versa. Franco-British hostility vanishes when it comes to questions of words and clothing. God save the King is a tune composed by Lully for a chorus in a play by Racine.
Honore de Balzac
When passion is not fed, it changes to need. At this juncture, marriage becomes a fixed idea in the mind of the bourgeois, being the only means whereby he can win a woman and appropriate her to his uses.
Honore de Balzac
Women, when they have made a sheep of a man, always tell him that he is a lion with a will of iron.
Honore de Balzac
Show me the woman, however loyal, who does not seek to rouse desire.
Honore de Balzac
It is very difficult to pass from pleasure to work. Accordingly more poems have been swallowed up by sorrow than ever happiness caused to blaze forth in unparalleled radiance.
Honore de Balzac
In a world of hunchbacks, a fine figure becomes a monstrosity.
Honore de Balzac
Woman is a delightful instrument of pleasure, but it is necessary to know its trembling strings, to study the position of them, the timid keyboard, the fingering so changeful and capricious which befits it.
Honore de Balzac
No man should marry until he has studied anatomy and dissected at least one woman.
Honore de Balzac
