More quotes by Honore de Balzac
No husband will ever be better avenged than by his wife's lover.
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
No frozen-hearted woman ever I laid eyes on but has made duty her religion.
Honore de Balzac
Thanks to the toleration preached by the encyclopedists of the eighteenth century, the sorcerer is exempt from torture.
Honore de Balzac

Honore de Balzac
Inspiration is the opportunity of genius.
Honore de Balzac
L'amour n'est pas seulement un sentiment, il est un art aussi. Love is not only a feeling it is also an art.
Honore de Balzac
Fools gain greater advantages through their weakness than intelligent men through their strength. We watch a great man struggling against fate and we do not lift a finger to help him. But we patronize a grocer who is headed for bankruptcy.
Honore de Balzac
No woman has ever existed who did not know perfectly well in her heart what to expect from the superiority or inferiority of a rival.
Honore de Balzac
For the person who loves God, worship is the daily bread of patience.
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 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
In a husband, there is only a man in a married woman, there is a man, a father, a mother and a woman.
Honore de Balzac
Our greatest fears lie in anticipation.
Honore de Balzac
Virtue in women is perhaps a question of temperament.
Honore de Balzac
Generally our confidences move downward rather than upward in our secret affairs, we employ our inferiors much more than our bettors.
Honore de Balzac
There is a cure for temptation. What? Yielding to it.
Honore de Balzac
