More From Honore de Balzac
- "The fact is that love is of two kinds, one which commands, and one which obeys. The two are quite distinct, and the passion to which the one gives rise is not the passion of the other."
- "At fifteen, beauty and talent do not exist; there can only be promise of the coming woman."
- "But reason always cuts a poor figure beside sentiment; the one being essentially restricted, like everything that is positive, while the other is infinite."
