Quotes from Germaine de Staël

I learn life from the poets.

Love is the emblem of eternity; it confounds all notion of time; effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end.

Love is the whole history of a woman's life, it is but an episode in a man's.

To understand everything makes one tolerant.

The more I see of men, the more I like dogs.

The human mind always makes progress, but it is a progress in spirals.

Love is the history of a woman's life; it is an episode in man's.

Love is the emblem of eternity; it confounds all notion of time; effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end.
