Madame de Stael

Madame de Stael

Madame de Stael
Unhappy love freezes all our affections: our own souls grow inexplicable to us. More than we gained while we were happy we lose by the reverse.
Madame de Stael
The face of a woman, whatever be the force or extent of her mind, whatever be the importance of the object she pursues, is always an obstacle or a reason in the story of her life.
Madame de Stael
Love is the whole history of a woman's life, it is but an episode in a man's.
