More quotes by Madame de Stael
Love is the whole history of a woman's life, it is but an episode in a man's.
Madame de Stael
New doctrines ever displease the old. They like to fancy that the world has been losing wisdom, instead of gaining it, since they were young.
Madame de Stael
Glory can be for a woman but the brilliant morning of happiness.
Madame de Stael

Madame de Stael
Nothing recalls the past like music.
Madame de Stael
Poetry is the apotheosis of sentiment.
Madame de Stael
Only the refined and delicate pleasures that spring from research and education can build up barriers between different ranks.
Madame de Stael
Man's most valuable faculty is his imagination.
Madame de Stael
I believe that happiness consists in having a destiny in keeping with our abilities. Our desires are things of the moment, often harmful even to ourselves but our abilities are permanent, and their demands never cease.
