More quotes by Honore de Balzac
Vivacity is the health of the spirit.
Honore de Balzac
Do you know how a man makes his way here? By brilliant genius or by skilful corruption. You must either cut your way through these masses of men like a cannon ball, or steal among them like a plague.
Honore de Balzac

Honore de Balzac
Love is the poetry of the senses.
Honore de Balzac

Honore de Balzac

Honore de Balzac
The endless legacy of the past to the present is the secret source of human genius.
Honore de Balzac
No woman dares to refuse love without a motive, for nothing is more natural than to yield to love.
Honore de Balzac
White hair often covers the head, but the heart that holds it is ever young.
Honore de Balzac
It would be curious to know what leads a man to become a stationer rather than a baker, when he is no longer compelled, as among the Egyptians, to succeed to his father's craft.
Honore de Balzac
Bureaucracy is a giant mechanism operated by pygmies.
Honore de Balzac
God is the poet men are but the actors. The great dramas of earth were written in heaven.
