More quotes by Honore de Balzac

Honore de Balzac
Nothing about me surprises me.
Honore de Balzac
With monuments as with men, position means everything.
Honore de Balzac
But does not happiness come from the soul within?
Honore de Balzac
He who best knows the world will love it least.
Honore de Balzac
Marriageable girls as well as mothers understand the terms and perils of the lottery called wedlock. That is why women weep at a wedding and men smile.
Honore de Balzac
It is only in the act of nursing that a woman realizes her motherhood in visible and tangible fashion it is a joy of every moment.
Honore de Balzac
A jealous husband doesnt doubt his wife, but himself.
Honore de Balzac

Honore de Balzac
Forgetting is the great secret of strong and creative lives.
Honore de Balzac
Love is like some fresh spring, first a stream and then a river, changing its aspect and its nature as it flows to plunge itself in some boundless ocean, where restricted natures only find monotony, but where great souls are engulfed in endless contemplation.
Honore de Balzac
Our heart is a treasury if you pour out all its wealth at once, you are bankrupt.
Honore de Balzac
How did you get back?' asked Vautrin. 'I walked,' replied Eugene. 'I wouldn't like half-pleasures, myself,' observed the tempter. 'I'd want to go there in my own carriage, have my own box, and come back in comfort. All or nothing, that's my motto.' 'And a very good one,' said Madame Vauquer.
Honore de Balzac
In the first woman we love, we love everything. Growing older, we love the woman only.
Honore de Balzac
One admirable trait in women is their lack of illusions about themselves. They never reason about their most blameworthy actions their feelings carry them away. Even their dissimulation comes naturally to them, and in them crime is free of all baseness. Most of the time they simply do not know how it happened.
Honore de Balzac
Glory and fame mean twelve thousand francs' worth of paid articles in the newspapers and five thousand crowns' worth of dinners.
Honore de Balzac
Hatred like love feeds on the merest trifles. Everything adds to it. Just as the being we love can do no wrong, so the one we hate can do no right.
Honore de Balzac
Life in clubs is no paltry sign of the times we live in. Here gentlemen gamble with others whom they would not dream of inviting to their homes.
Honore de Balzac
Woman is stronger by virtue of her feelings than man by virtue of his power.
Honore de Balzac
Once she has committed sin, there is nothing left for the Protestant woman, whereas the Catholic Church, hope of forgiveness makes a woman sublime.
Honore de Balzac
