More quotes by Moliere
And with his arms crossed he looks pityingly down from his spiritual height on everything that anyone says.
Moliere

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
Every good act is charity. A man's true wealth hereafter is the good that he does in this world to his fellows.
Moliere
