More quotes by Honore de Balzac
In smart society men are jealous of one another after the fashion of women.
Honore de Balzac
Several sorts of memory exist in us body and mind each possesses one peculiar to itself. Nostalgia, for instance, is a malady of the physical memory.
Honore de Balzac
Pity is woman's sweetest charm.
Honore de Balzac
Envy lurks at the bottom of the human heart like a viper in its hole.
Honore de Balzac
A man's own vanity is a swindler that never lacks for a dupe.
Honore de Balzac
Our energies are often stimulated by the necessity of supporting a being weaker than ourselves.
Honore de Balzac
Good befalls us while we sleep, sometimes.
Honore de Balzac
Perhaps it is only human nature to inflict suffering on anything that will endure suffering, whether by reason of its genuine humility, or indifference, or sheer helplessness.
Honore de Balzac
When chaste people need body or mind to resort to action or thought, they find steel in their muscles or knowledge in their intelligence. Theirs the diabolic vigor or the black magic of will power.
Honore de Balzac
Forgetting is the great secret of strong and creative lives.
Honore de Balzac
Men die in despair, while spirits die in ecstasy.
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
To say to a rich man: You are poor! is to tell the Archbishop of Granada that his sermons are worthless.
Honore de Balzac
The most virtuous women have within them something that is never chaste.
Honore de Balzac
For a sick man the world begins at his pillow and ends at the foot of his bed.
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
The day will dawn when Europe will believe only in the man who tramples her underfoot.
Honore de Balzac
The good we do to others is spoilt unless we efface ourselves so completely that those we help have no sense of inferiority.
Honore de Balzac
Little minds find satisfaction for their feelings, good or bad, in little things.
Honore de Balzac
Great minds always tend to see virtue in misfortune.
Honore de Balzac
