On May 20, 1799, in Tours, France, Balzac (Honore de Balzac), French novelist and playwright, was born. He was a conservative monarchist; the antipode of the democratic republicanism of the writer Victor Hugo. However, the sharp treatment of reality and the issues of the time won the respect of many socialists and Marxists. Engels said that Balzac was his favorite writer, while Marx constantly referred to his novels. He died in Paris on August 18, 1850. Below you can read 50 of his sayings.
• Glory is a poison to be taken in small doses!
• Laws are nets where large flies pass easily, while small flies get stuck!
• Behind every great wealth, a great crime is hidden!
• A mother's heart is a deep abyss, at the end of which you will find forgiveness!
• A woman knows the face of the man she loves, just like the sailor knows the open sea!
• A good husband is never the first to go to bed at night and never the last to wake up in the morning!
• A mother's happiness is like a ray of light, it illuminates the future, but it is also reflected in the past, in the form of beautiful memories!
• When women love us, they forgive us for everything, even our crimes; when they don't love us, they don't recognize our merit for anything, not even for our virtues!
• Love is the poetry of the senses!
• When we dive into the depths of pleasure, we bring up more dross than pearls!
• Perhaps virtue is nothing more than the courtesy of the soul!
• When the law becomes despotic, morality weakens, and vice versa!
• Passion is universal humanity. Without it, religion, history, romance, art would be useless!
• A man is a poor creature compared to a woman!
• Loneliness is good, but you still need someone to tell you that loneliness is good!
• Wisdom is the understanding of those divine things, to which the soul ascends through love!
• At that time, suicide was fashionable in Paris: what better key could there be to unravel the mystery for a skeptical society?!
• Our greatest enemies are our relatives. Kings have no brothers, no sons, no mothers!
• The more one judges, the less one loves!
• Happiness is a woman's poetry!
• The misunderstood are included in two categories: women and writers!
• The much-desired fame is almost always an unheralded prostitute!
• Critika is a brush that cannot be used on soft materials, where it can ruin everything!
• Marriage is a battle to the death, before which spouses ask heaven for his blessing!
• Believe everything you hear others say, nothing is too bad to be impossible. /Tirana Observer/
