Love is the poetry of the senses! - Honore de Balzac

"All happiness depends on courage and work."

"Women are tenacious, and all of them should be tenacious of respect; without esteem they cannot exist; esteem is the first demand that they make of love."

"Love has its own instinct, finding the way to the heart, as the feeblest insect finds the way to its flower, with a will which nothing can dismay nor turn aside."

"A woman knows the face of the man she loves as a sailor knows the open sea."

"The more one judges, the less one loves."
