Famous quotes containing the word balzac:

    Love in the abstract is not enough for a great man in poverty; he has need of its utmost devotion.... She who is really a wife, one in heart, flesh, and bone, must follow wherever he leads, in whom her life, her strength, her pride, and happiness are centered.
    —HonorĂ© De Balzac (1799–1850)
