Sidonie Gabrielle Colette Quotes

«Shall we never have done with that cliche, so stupid that it could only be human, about the sympathy of animals for man when he is unhappy? Animals love happiness almost as much as we do.

But they flee unhappiness as they flee fever, and I believe that in the long run they are capable of boycotting it.»

«Jealousy is not at all low, but it catches us humbled and bowed down, at first sight.»
«It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.»
«A pretty little collection of weaknesses and a terror of spiders are our indispensable stock-in-trade with the men.»
«One keeps forgetting old age up to the very brink of the grave.»
«Sincerity is not a spontaneous flower nor is modesty either.»
«Look for a long time at what pleases you, and a longer time at what pains you.»
«And what a delight it is to make friends with someone you have despised.»
«A woman who thinks she is intelligent demands the same rights as man. An intelligent woman gives up.»
