More quotes by Moliere
All is wholesome in the absence of excess.
Moliere
And knowing money is a root of evil, in Christian charity, he'd take away whatever things may hinder your salvation.
Moliere
There's a sort of decency among the dead, a remarkable discretion: you never find them making any complaint against the doctor who killed them!
Moliere
Heaven forbids, it is true, certain gratifications, but there are ways and means of compounding such matters.
Moliere
All extremes does perfect reason flee, And wishes to be wise quite soberly.
Moliere
It is fine for a woman to know a lot but I don't want her to have this shocking desire to be learned for learnedness sake. When I ask a woman a question, I like her to pretend to ignore what she really knows.
Moliere
All the ills of mankind, all the tragic misfortunes that fill the history books, all the political blunders, all the failures of the great leaders have arisen merely from a lack of skill at dancing.
Moliere
And with his arms crossed he looks pityingly down from his spiritual height on everything that anyone says.
Moliere
You only die once, but you will be dead for a very long time.
Moliere
It is a fine seasoning for joy to think of those we love.
Moliere
I have the fault of being a little more sincere than is proper.
Moliere
We live under a prince who is an enemy to fraud, a prince whose eyes penetrate into the heart, and whom all the art of impostors can't deceive.
Moliere
I feed on good soup, not beautiful language.
Moliere
To marry a fool is to be no fool.
Moliere
As the purpose of comedy is to correct the vices of men, I see no reason why anyone should be exempt.
Moliere
The more powerful the obstacle, the more glory we have in overcoming it and the difficulties with which we are met are the maids of honor which set off virtue.
Moliere
Those whose conduct gives room for talk are always the first to attack their neighbors.
Moliere
The road is long fro the project to its completion.
Moliere
Rest assured that there is nothing which wounds the heart of a noble man more deeply than the thought his honour is assailed.
Moliere
The most effective way of attacking vice is to expose it to public ridicule. People can put up with rebukes but they cannot bear being laughed at: they are prepared to be wicked but they dislike appearing ridiculous.
Moliere
