More quotes by Moliere
New-born desires, after all, have inexplicable charms, and all the pleasure of love is in variety.
Moliere
How easily a fathers tenderness is recalled, and how quickly a son's offenses vanish at the slightest word of repentance!
Moliere
You only die once, but you will be dead for a very long time.
Moliere
Then worms shall try That long preserved virginity, And your quaint honor turn to dust, And into ashes all my lust. The grave's a fine and private place But none, I think, do there embrace.
Moliere
Two wives? That exceeds the custom.
Moliere
Innocence is not accustomed to blush.
Moliere
Solitude terrifies the soul at twenty.
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

Moliere
Men often marry in hasty recklessness and repent afterward all their lives.
Moliere
The smallest errors are always the best. [Fr., Les plus courtes erreurs sont toujours les meilleures.]
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
Those whose conduct gives room for talk are always the first to attack their neighbors.
Moliere
Consistency is only suitable for ridicule.
Moliere
I prefer a pleasant vice to an annoying virtue.
Moliere
