George Sand Love Quotations

There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.

Love without reverence and enthusiasm is only friendship.

Not to love is to cease to live.

Unrequited love is as different from the mutual love as the error from the truth.

faith is like love; when you want it you can't find it, and you find it when you least expect it.

Simplicity, a delicate silence about oneself, increases their worth and makes one love those whom one admires.

... love is too delicate a flower to rise again when one has trampled it under foot.

Young love needs dangers and barriers to nourish it.

If they are ignorant, they are despised, if learned, mocked. In love they are reduced to the status of courtesans. As wives they are treated more as servants than as companions. Men do not love them: they make use of them, they exploit them, and expect, in that way, to make them subject to the law of fidelity.

Where love is absent there can be no woman.

O heart! love is thy bane and thy antidote.

Life isn't always easy but so long as we have hope that we will find someone to help us through the darkness things will always get better. When we find that person, life suddenly explodes and darkness turns into a riot of colour. We're always looking for someone, what we need to remember is that someone is out there looking for us too.

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

I regard as a mortal sin not only the lying of the senses in matters of love, but also the illusion which the senses seek to create where love is only partial. I say, I believe, that one must love with all of one's being, or else live, come what may, a life of complete chastity.

Fame and admiration weigh not a feather in the scale against friendship and love, for the heart languishes all the same.

almost all novels are love stories.
