Gustave Flaubert quotes
" All one's inventions are true, you can be sure of that. Poetry is as exact a science as geometry. "

Gustave Flaubert
" All the proofs arose before her at once; her heart leapt. The flame of the fire threw a joyous light upon the ceiling; she turned on her back, stretching out her arms. "

Gustave Flaubert
" All the sensations of her first tenderness came back to her, and her poor aching heart opened out amorously. A warm wind blew in her face; the melting snow fell drop by drop from the buds to the grass. "

Gustave Flaubert
" Anything becomes interesting if you look at it long enough. "

Gustave Flaubert
" Artists who seek perfection in everything are those who cannot attain it in anything. "

Gustave Flaubert
" As a rule we disbelieve all the facts and theories for which we have no use. "

Gustave Flaubert
" At first, love had intoxicated her; and she had thought of nothing beyond. But now that he was indispensable to her life, she feared to lose anything of this, or even that it should be disturbed. "

Gustave Flaubert
" At the end of some indefinite distance there was always a confused spot, into which her dream died. "

Gustave Flaubert

Gustave Flaubert

Gustave Flaubert
" Emma seemed to him to have receded into a far-off past, as if the resolution he had taken had suddenly placed a distance between them. "

Gustave Flaubert

Gustave Flaubert
" Everything one invents is true, you may be perfectly sure of that. Poetry is as precise as geometry. "

Gustave Flaubert
" Exuberance is better than taste. "
