No one makes a revolution by himself; and there are some revolutions which humanity accomplishes without quite knowing how, because it is everybody who takes them in hand.

George Sand 200 quotes

God has written in the law of nature that when two people are joined in love or friendship, one must always give his heart more perfectly than the other.

George Sand 200 quotes

God abandons only those who abandon themselves, and whoever has the courage to shut up his sorrow within his own heart is stronger to fight against it than he who complains.

I'm not full of virtues and noble qualities. I love, but I love strongly, exclusive, stedfasty.

George Sand 200 quotes

One is happy as a result of on...

One is happy as a result of one's own efforts, once one knows of the necessary ingredients of happiness-simple tastes, a certain degree of courage, self-denial to a point, love of work, and, above all, a clear conscience. Happiness is no vague dream, of that I now feel certain.

George Sand 200 quotes

Vanity is the most despotic and iniquitous of masters, and I can never be the slave of my own vices.

George Sand 200 quotes

Immodest creature, you do not ...

Immodest creature, you do not want a woman who will accept your faults, you want the one who pretends you are faultless - one who will caress the hand that strikes her and kiss the lips that lie to her.

Be prudent, and if you hear, * * * some insult or some threat, * * * have the appearance of not hearing it.

When I tried to draw near, you dissolved into air before my lips could touch you....

George Sand 200 quotes

Humanity is outraged in me and with me. We must not dissimulate nor try to forget this indignation, which is one of the most passionate forms of love.

George Sand 200 quotes

One wastes so much time, one is so prodigal of life, at twenty! Our days of winter count for double. That is the compensation of the old.

George Sand 200 quotes

It is quite wrong to think of ...

It is quite wrong to think of old age as a downward slope. On the contrary, one climbs higher and higher with the ad-vancing years, and that, too with sur-prising strides. Brain-work comes as easily to the old as physical exertion to the child. One is moving, it is true, towards the end of life, but that end is now a goal, and not a reef in which the vessel may be dashed.

George Sand 200 quotes

A man is not a wall, whose sto...

A man is not a wall, whose stones are crushed upon the road; or a pipe, whose fragments are thrown away at a street corner. The fragments of an intellect are always good.

Celebrate within yourself that wonderful treasure . . . true kindness.

I see upon their noble brows the seal of the Lord, for they were born kings of the earth far more truly than those who possess it only from having bought it.

George Sand 200 quotes

There are no more thorough prudes than those who have some little secret to hide.

George Sand 200 quotes

Some say that cats are devils, but they behave badly only when they are alone. When they are among us cats are angels.

Let us accept truth, even when it surprises us and alters our views.

Butterflies are but flowers that blew away one sunny day when Nature was feeling at her most inventive and fertile.

And I refused to make any sacrifices; for nothing on earth seemed more valuable than my peace of mind, my pleasure and my acclaim.
