"The intellect seeks, the heart finds...." - Quote by George Sand

“My strength has not equaled my mad ambition. I have remained obscure; I have done worse -- I have touched success, and allowed it to escape me.”

“fretting at trouble only doubles it.”

“The smoke of glory is not worth the smoke of a pipe.”

“Civilizations proceed from the heart rather than from the head.”

“Without the aid of trained emotions the intellect is powerless against the animal organism.”

“The value of an idea has nothing whatsoever to do with the sincerity of the man who expresses it. Indeed, the probabilities are that the more insincere the man is, the more purely intellectual will the idea be, as in that case it will not be coloured by either his wants, his desires, or his prejudices.”

“There is a secret drawer in every woman's heart.”

“The intellect is always fooled by the heart.”

“If you are not generous when it's difficult, you will not be generous when it's easy. Generosity is a function of the heart, not the wallet.”
