Additional quotes by George Sand

Art for art's sake is an empty phrase. Art for the sake of truth, art for the sake of the good and the beautiful, that is the faith I am searching for.

ты не видишь, как движется государственная машина, а если бы ты видела, то удивилась бы, как могут государственные люди быть чем-либо иным, кроме старых сплетниц.

"Le vrai est trop simple, il faut y arriver toujours par le compliqué."

("The truth is too simple: one must always get there by a complicated route.")

[Letter to Armand Barbès, 12 May 1867]
