Honore de Balzac
Carelessness in dressing is moral suicide.
Honore de Balzac
The prodigality of millionaires is comparable only to their greed of gain. Let some whim or passion seize them and money is of no account. In fact these Croesuses find whims and passions harder to come by than gold.
Honore de Balzac
The woman you buy takes a great deal of money. The woman who gives herself to you takes all your money.
Honore de Balzac
But does not happiness come from the soul within?
Honore de Balzac
My further advice on your relations to women is based upon that other motto of chivalry, Serve all, love one.
Honore de Balzac
Neither the passions not justice nor politics nor the great social forces ever consider the victims they strike.
Honore de Balzac
Does anyone know where these gondolas of Paris come from? [Fr., Ne sait on pas ou viennent ces gondoles Parisiennes?]
Honore de Balzac
Love is a game in which one always cheats.
