More quotes by Moliere
Long is the road from conception to completion.
Moliere
Gold is the key, whatever else we try and that sweet metal aids the conqueror in every case, in love as well as war.
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
I have a heart to love all the world and like Alexander I wish there were yet other worlds, so I could carry even further my amorous conquests.
Moliere
I hate all men, the ones because they are mean and vicious, and the others for being complaisant with the vicious ones.
Moliere
If everyone were clothed with integrity, if every heart were just, frank, kindly, the other virtues would be well-nigh useless.
Moliere
Gold makes the ugly beautiful.
Moliere
Great is the fortune of he who possesses a good bottle, a good book, and a good friend.
Moliere
A wise man is superior to any insults which can be put upon him, and the best reply to unseemly behavior is patience and moderation.
Moliere
Although I am a pious man, I am not the less a man.
Moliere
Things are only worth what you make them worth.
Moliere
It is not only for what we do that we are held responsible, but also for what we do not do.
Moliere
It is madness beyond compare To try to reform the world.
Moliere
How easily a fathers tenderness is recalled, and how quickly a son's offenses vanish at the slightest word of repentance!
Moliere
One cannot but mistrust a prospect of felicity: one must enjoy it before one can believe in it.
Moliere
Solitude terrifies the soul at twenty.
Moliere
There is no fate more distressing for an artist than to have to show himself off before fools, to see his work exposed to the criticism of the vulgar and ignorant.
Moliere
Our minds need relaxation, and give way unless we mix with work a little play.
Moliere
And with his arms crossed he looks pityingly down from his spiritual height on everything that anyone says.
Moliere
Heaven forbids, it is true, certain gratifications, but there are ways and means of compounding such matters.
Moliere
