"But reason always cuts a poor figure..." - Quote by Honore De Balzac

“Love is a game in which one always cheats.”

“The more one judges, the less one loves.”

“The woman you buy takes a great deal of money. The woman who gives herself to you takes all your money.”

“I prithee gentle friend,Let thy fair wisdom, not thy passions, swayIn this uncivil and unjust extentAgainst thy peace.”

“It is reasonable that everyone who asks justice should do justice”

“Treat with utmost respect your power of forming opinions, for this power alone guards you against making assumptions that are contrary to nature and judgments that overthrow the rule of reason.”

“Fear arises sooner than anything else.”

“Of all the violent passions, the one that becomes a woman best is love.”

“There's a kind of bad that gets so overpowering you can't even talk about it.”
