Jules Renard
Man who waits for roast duck to fly into mouth must wait very, very long time.
Jules Renard

Jules Renard
There are moments when everything goes well, but don't be frightened.

Jules Renard
If one were to build the house of happiness, the largest space would be the waiting room.
Jules Renard
Wrinkles are engraved smiles.
Jules Renard
The story I am writing exists, written in absolutely perfect fashion, some place, in the air. All I must do is find it, and copy it.
Jules Renard
Clarity is the politeness of the man of letters.
Jules Renard
God, he whom everyone knows, by name.
Jules Renard
To think is not enough, you must think of something.
Jules Renard
If I had my life to live over again, I would ask that not a thing be changed, but that my eyes be opened wider.
