Colette, known for her sharp wit and insightful observations, left behind many memorable quotes. Here are a few of her notable ones:
-
"You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm."
-
"Be happy. It's one way of being wise."
-
"What a wonderful life I've had! I only wish I'd realized it sooner."
-
"You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart always will be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place."
-
"There are no ordinary cats."
-
"Love is not enough. It must be the foundation, the cornerstone - but not the complete structure. It is much too pliable, too yielding."
-
"I am going to write because I cannot help it."
These quotes capture Colette's wisdom, humor, and deep understanding of human nature, love, and life. They reflect her resilience, passion for living, and commitment to her craft as a writer.
