Quotes

No one ought even to desert a woman after throwing her a heap of gold in her distress! He ought to love her forever! You are young, only twenty-one, and kind and upright and fine. You'll ask me how a woman can take money from a man. Oh, God, isn't it natural to share everything with the one we owe all our happiness to? When one has given everything, how can one quibble about a mere portion of it? Money is important only when feeling has ceased. Isn't one bound for life? How can you foresee... Honore de Balzac
Honore de Balzac quote: "Life is simply what out feelings do to us."
Life is simply what out feelings do to us. Honore de Balzac

The stupidest man will often, under the stress of passion, achieve heights of eloquence, in thought if not in language, and seem to move in some luminous sphere. Goriot's voice and gesture had at this moment the power of communication that characterizes the great actor. Are not our finer feelings the poems of the human will? Honore de Balzac
Women are always true, even in the midst of their greatest falsities, because they are always influenced by some natural feeling. Honore de Balzac
Honore de Balzac quote: "Death unites as well as separates; it silences all paltry..."
Death unites as well as separates; it silences all paltry feeling. Honore de Balzac
Honore de Balzac quote: "I'm a great poet. I don't put my poems on paper: they consist..."
I'm a great poet. I don't put my poems on paper: they consist of actions and feelings. Honore de Balzac
