Into A Paris Quartier: Reine Margot's Chapel and Other Haunts of St.-Germain QUOTES

1 " Misfortune prompts us to summon our utmost strength to oppose grief and recover tranquility, while prosperity hurries us away until we are overwhelmed by our passions. Queen Margot

Hypocrisy is the homage vice pays to virtue. La Rochefoucault

We promise according to our hopes; we perform according to our fears.

I sometimes wonder is the esprit, gaiety, intellectual seriousness and serious stylishness of the earlier period was the reflex of poverty and shared hardship. "

― Diane Johnson , Into A Paris Quartier: Reine Margot's Chapel and Other Haunts of St.-Germain
