More From Gustave Flaubert
- "You can calculate the worth of a man by the number of his enemies, and the importance of a work of art by the harm that is spoken of it."
- "Caught up in life, you see it badly. You suffer from it or enjoy it too much. The artist, in my opinion, is a monstrosity, something outside of nature."
- "Be regular and orderly in your life, so that you may be violent and original in your work."
