Honore de Balzac
  • I do not regard a broker as a member of the human race.

  • Finance, like time, devours its own children.

  • When women love us, they forgive us everything, even our crimes when they do not love us, they give us credit for nothing, not even our virtues.

  • The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.

  • Nothing so fortifies a friendship as a belief on the part of one friend that he is superior to the other.
