Quotes by Francois de La Rochefoucauld: The complete collection of over 100 quotes

By: Regan, Lilith

Jealousy contains more of self-love than of love.True love is like ghosts, which everybody talks about and few have seen.Absence diminishes small loves and increases great ones, as the wind blows out the candle and fans the bonfire.Hypocrisy is the homage which vice pays to virtue.We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves.If we had no faults of our own, we would not take so much pleasure in noticing those of others.To eat is a necessity, but to eat intelligently is an art.There is no disguise which can hide love for long where it exists, or simulate it where it does not.However rare true love may be, it is less so than true friendship.Philosophy triumphs easily over past evils and future evils; but present evils triumph over it.
