Additional quotes by François-Auguste-René de Chateaubriand

Only one thing held my attention: the hands of a clock stopped at the minute that Frederick expired. I was deceived by the stillness of the image. The hours never suspend their flight; it is not man who stops time, but time who stops man. In the end it matters little what part we have played in life. The brilliance or obscurity of our doctrines, our wealth or poverty, our joy or pain: these things have no effect on the measure of our days. Whether the hand moves around a golden face or a wooden one, whether the dial fills the bezel of a ring or the rose window of a cathedral, the length of the hour is still the same.

Quanto durerebbe se fosse vero? il tempo di stringerti tra le braccia. La gioventù rende bello tutto, persino l'infelicità. Incanta quando con i riccioli di una chioma bruna può asciugare le lacrime man mano che scorrono sulle guance. Ma la vecchiaia rende brutta persino la felicità; nell'infelicità è ancora peggio: i radi capelli bianchi che restano sulla testa calva di un uomo non saranno mai abbastanza lunghi da asciugare le lacrime che cadono dai suoi occhi.
