Alphonse de Lamartine
  • Experience is the only prophecy of wise men.

  • There is a woman at the begining of all great things.

  • Grief knits two hearts in closer bonds than happiness ever can and common sufferings are far stronger links than common joys.

  • Providence conceals itself in the details of human affairs, but becomes unveiled in the generalities of history.

  • There is a woman at the begining of all great things.
