More quotes by Honore de Balzac
Like most young people, these two attributed to the world their own intelligence and virtues. Youth who knows no failure has no mercy on the faults of other people but it has also a sublime faith in them.
Honore de Balzac
Happiness lends poetic charms to woman, and dress adorns her like a delicate tinge of rouge.
Honore de Balzac
One can imagine the look the two lovers exchanged it was like a flame, for virtuous lovers have not a shred of hypocrisy.
Honore de Balzac
Events are never absolute, their outcome depends entirely upon the individual.
Honore de Balzac

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
A man who stops at nothing short of the law is very clever indeed!
Honore de Balzac
One should believe in marriage as in the immortality of the soul.
Honore de Balzac
Some day you will find out that there is far more happiness in another's happiness than in your own.
Honore de Balzac

Reading brings us unknown friends
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
It is not hope but despair that gives us the measure of our ambitions. We may yield secretly to beautiful poems of hope but grief looms start and stripped of all veils.
Honore de Balzac
A knowledge of mankind and of things that surround us gives us that second education which proves far move valuable than our first because it alone turns out a truly accomplished man.
Honore de Balzac
Today nobility is gone: there is only a peerage.
Honore de Balzac
People who climb from one rung of society to another can never do anything simply.
Honore de Balzac
When an intelligent man reaches the point of inviting self-explanation and offers surrendering the key to his heart, he is assuredly riding a drunken horse.
Honore de Balzac
Above all do not ask that justice be just: It is just, because it is justice. The idea of a just justice could have originated only in the brain of an anarchist.
Honore de Balzac
Self-interest is an ineffable feeling which shall follow us into God's very presence since they say there is a hierarchy even among the Holy Saints.
Honore de Balzac
Political liberty, the peace of a nation, and science itself are gifts for which Fate demands a heavy tax in blood!
Honore de Balzac
