French Romantic writer and politician.

A library implies an act of faith.
Love that is not jealous is neither true nor pure.
A faith is a necessity to a man. Woe to him who believes in nothing.
Toleration is the best religion.
Certain thoughts are prayers. There are moments when, whatever be the attitude of the body, the soul is on its knees.
An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come.
Life is the flower for which love is the honey.
Intelligence is the wife, imagination is the mistress, memory is the servant.
Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.
I'm religiously opposed to religion.
