Alfred De Musset Quotes

If You Are Weak, Dependent Upon Others, Inclined To Allow Yourself To Be Dominated By Opinion, To Take Root Wherever You See A Little Soil, Make For Yourself A Shield That Will Resist Everything, For If You Yield To Your Weaker Nature You Will Not Grow, You Will Dry Up Like A Dead Plant, And You Will Bear Neither Fruit Nor Flowers. The Sap Of Your Life Will Dissipate Into The Formation Of A Useless Bark; All Your Actions Will Be As Colorless As The Leaves Of The Willow; You Will Have No Tears To Water You, But Those From Your Own Eyes, To Nourish You, No Heart But Your Own.
