No human creature can give orders to love.
George Sand

There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.
George Sand

Work is not man's punishment. It is his reward and his strength and his pleasure.
George Sand

George Sand

George Sand

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved.
George Sand
