El futuro nos tortura, y el pasado nos encadena. He ahí por qué se nos escapa el presente

Par Gustave Flaubert

Travel, leave everything, copy the birds. The home is one of civilization’s sadnesses.

Par Gustave Flaubert

Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.

Par Gustave Flaubert

Maybe happiness too is a metaphor invented on a day of boredom

Par Gustave Flaubert

To be stupid, selfish, and have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost.

Par Gustave Flaubert

One can be the master of what one does, but never of what one feels.

Par Gustave Flaubert

There is not a particle of life which does not bear poetry within it

Par Gustave Flaubert

Be steady and well-ordered in your life so that you can be fierce and original in your work.

Par Gustave Flaubert

Do not read, as children do, to amuse yourself, or like the ambitious, for the purpose of instruction. No, read in order to live.

Par Gustave Flaubert

She was as sated with him as he was tired of her. Emma had rediscovered in adultery all the banality of marriage.

Par Gustave Flaubert

How badly arranged the world is. What is the purpose of ugliness, suffering, sadness? Why our powerless dreams? Why everything?

Par Gustave Flaubert

Sadness is a vice.

Par Gustave Flaubert

It’s hard to communicate anything exactly and that’s why perfect relationships between people are difficult to find.

Par Gustave Flaubert

Des promesses tant qu'on en veut, et puis rien.

Par Gustave Flaubert -1873

J'ai l'infirmité d'être né avec une langue spéciale dont seul j'ai la clé.

Par Gustave Flaubert -1846
