5115Is he, BETWEEN OURSELVES, as intelligent as he is good?
5115Is her deafness sudden?
5115Is it agreed?
5115Is it because you are a great man or a charming being?
5115Is it eternal art?
5115Is it foolish of me?
5115Is it for a play that you came?
5115Is it lovely, too?
5115Is it not time to make justice a part of art?
5115Is it on more or less education?
5115Is it only since''89 that people have been floundering?
5115Is it possible?
5115Is it really a good position?
5115Is it something different?
5115Is it stoicism or fatigue?
5115Is it stupid to be interested in such simple things?
5115Is it the consequence of my repeated afflictions?
5115Is it the result of a too great activity for the past eight months, or the radical absence of the feminine element in my life?
5115Is it the result of prosperity, and does civilization involve this sickly and cowardly selfishness?
5115Is it then irreparable?
5115Is it to be understood, applauded?
5115Is it to get money?
5115Is it true what you tell me of G----?
5115Is it wise to make them loving and affectionate early?
5115Is n''t it a fine piece of idiocy, eh?
5115Is n''t it a question of material care and continual diligence?
5115Is n''t it an uneasiness, an anguish caused by the desire of an impossible SOMETHING OR OTHER?
5115Is n''t it lovely, the moonlight on the trees covered with snow?
5115Is n''t it rather a lack of conviction than a principle of esthetics?
5115Is n''t it the people without taste and without ideals who get bored, do n''t enjoy anything and are useless?
5115Is n''t it the same with you?
5115Is n''t there anywhere a little urchin whose father you can believe you are?
5115Is not the material explanation of the event too short?
5115Is not the sun itself a myth?
5115Is one old when one does not choose to be?
5115Is she then again settled in Paris?
5115Is that really so?
5115Is the request indiscreet?
5115Is there any more beautiful?
5115Is there at this time, I do n''t say, admiration or sympathy, but the appearance of a little attention to works of art?
5115Is there not a heritage that our beloved dead leave us?
5115Is there perhaps profound symbolism hidden in Maurice''s work?
5115Is this a time to put on Aisse?
5115Is this horrible experience going to prove to the world that warfare ought to be suppressed or that civilization has to perish?
5115Isidore or Henry V. or the kingdom of incendiaries restored by anarchy?
5115It is a charming book, is n''t it?
5115It is not I who can teach you how to protect yourself But have n''t you a friend who knows how to act for you?
5115It is surely tomorrow THURSDAY that we dine together?
5115It is true that while reading, one accepts them because of the cleverness of the execution; but afterwards?
5115It ought to please?
5115It would be agreeable to me to say what I think and to relieve Mister Gustave Flaubert by words, but of what importance is the said gentleman?
5115Littre a senator?
5115MODERATION, relative chastity, abstinence from excess, whatever you want, but that is translated by EQUILIBRIUM; am I wrong, my master?
5115Madame Viardot, who has naturally good taste, said to me yesterday, in speaking of you:"How was she able to make one from the other?"
5115Moreover whom could I see?
5115Must I then describe that little creature?
5115Must I write him?
5115Must one find some fashion of accepting the honor, the duty, and the fatigue of living?
5115Must she converse and read aloud?
5115Must we wait till the middle of the winter to embrace each other?
5115No joking?
5115Nohant, 8 August, 1870 Are you in Paris in the midst of all this torment?
5115Not very much, do you?
5115Now explain to me why they put mattresses under certain falls and thorns under others?
5115Now, forget; do n''t you know how to forget?
5115Of what are you thinking, good head and good heart, in the midst of this bacchanal?
5115Of what use are these pleasures of vision, and how are these impressions transformed later?
5115One is happy, do n''t you think so, to be able to relate one''s whole life?
5115One ought to love common people more than oneself, are they not the real unfortunates of the world?
5115One pities a little bird that has fallen from its nest; why not pity a heap of consciences fallen in the mud?
5115Otherwise should n''t one curse the flesh like the Catholics?
5115Our friend Alexandre Dumas fils, to make an agreeable paradox, has boasted of its advantages in the preface to the Dame aux Camelias, has n''t he?
5115Perhaps also even emperor of the East?
5115Perhaps tomorrow we shall know that we have beaten, and what will there be good or useful from one or the other?
5115Poor old fellow, did you finally sleep like a dormouse in your cabin?
5115Pray, what is this obstinate cough?
5115Shall I ever be in a condition to write again?
5115Shall I ever find mine?
5115Shall I go to Croisset this autumn?
5115Shall I have the strength to live absolutely alone in solitude?
5115Shall I never know it?
5115Shall I survive it?
5115Shall one ever get to hating piffle?
5115Shall you be there still?
5115Shall you stay in Nohant?
5115Shall you stay there indefinitely?
5115She answered me the 19th of this month: HOW SHALL I SEND THIS TO YOU?
5115She plays and laughs, then she stops; her great eyes stare, she says: MY FATHER?
5115Should n''t we put what society puts in each one of us?
5115Should one excite or repress the sensitiveness of children?
5115Should we put much or little of ourselves in them?
5115Since when could they do without delusions?
5115So I suppose that you will have two volumes, wo n''t you?
5115So I think that I am going on in my natural path; am I right?
5115So you are still working frantically?
5115Solitude does not weigh on you?
5115THE PEOPLE ALWAYS FEROCIOUS, you say?

5115Tell me how and why father Hugo did not have one single visit after Ruy Blas?
5115That I have had only the time here to sleep a little, and to eat in a hurry?
5115That disappears, you say?
5115That is a charming story, Mademoiselle Hauterive, is n''t it?
5115That is one of the choicest parts of your book, together with the homelife, the life in New York?
5115That would have been very little, would it not?
5115The Prussians occupied it; did they ruin it, dirty it, rob it?
5115The cheeses?
5115The individual, disowned, overwhelmed by the modern world, will he regain his importance?
5115The people ferocious?
5115The shopkeepers of Paris, without a guide, and without good criticism?
5115Then you are going to start grubbing again?
5115Then you are worrying about money?
5115Then you think me upset, since you preach detachment to me?
5115Then, I shall see you soon?
5115They analyze very keenly the setting in which it was written, and the causes that produced it; but the UNCONSCIOUS poetic expression?
5115They say that Cadio is now being rehearsed at the Porte Saint- Martin( so you have fallen out with Chilly?)
5115This slavery to one''s profession is horrid, is n''t it?
5115Thus, why is a relation necessary between the exact word and the musical word?
5115To Paris or to Nohant?
5115To what depth of imbecility shall we descend?
5115Tourgueneff wrote me that your last work was very remarkable: then you are not DONE FOR, as you pretend?
5115Tuesday, 11 October, 1870 Dear master, Are you still living?
5115Undeceive yourself, and act as if Aisse had never existed; and above all no sensitiveness?

5115What difference did it make between the sublime and the ridiculous?
5115What difference does it make if they cut you up in this or that paper?
5115What difference does it make whether one has a hundred thousand enemies if one is loved by two or three good souls?

5115Will your nephew and niece go to the gallery or the balcony seats?
5115With whom shall I talk of what interests me?
5115Wo n''t you come to see us?
5115Would formidable bleedings be useful?
5115Would it have been the better for that?
5115Would it then be only more or less wealth that would classify men into two distinct parties?
5115Would you believe that I have not seen Sainte- Beuve?
5115You always astonish me with your painstaking work; is it a coquetry?
5115You are reading that, you?
5115You are right a thousand times over, but by what means could it be otherwise?
5115You are too truly superior not to arouse envy and you do n''t care, do you?
5115You are working?
5115You are wrathful, oh very well, I like that better than if you were laughing at it; but when you are calmer and when you reflect?
5115You do n''t tell me of your mother; is she in Paris with her grandchild?
5115You do not speak of a COMPLETE EDITION?
5115You know that?
5115You must be content?

5115You say to develop one''s self in every direction?
5115You understand me, do n''t you?
5115You want me to say that I have been mistaken all my life, that humanity is contemptible, hateful, that it always has been and always will be so?
5115You want me to say that I have been mistaken all my life, that humanity is contemptible, hateful, that it has always been and always will be so?
5115You want me to say: man is made thus, crime is his expression, infamy is his nature?
5115You were pleased with my two novels?
5115You will have finished your rehearsals, you will have had a success, perhaps you will be in the mood to return to material life, eating truffles?
5115You wo n''t go there without seeing the Cirque of Gavarnie, and the road that leads there, will you?
5115You would perhaps do France a great service?
5115Your articles in le Temps, which have had a great success, are widely read and who knows?
5115Your books, your bibelots, did you find them all?
5115Your chosen chiefs, your governors, your inspirers, are they all brigands and idiots?
5115Your courage has not declined?
5115Your niece continues to improve, does she not?
5115Your old George Sand Did you receive my pamphlets on the faience?
5115Your work?
5115and silly?
5115and you, dear good master, that play that they talk about, is it finished?
5115another time she says: MAMMA?
5115are you correcting proof like a galley slave, up to the last minute?
5115but I do n''t see it yet very clearly; what can one do without sun and without heat?
5115dear master, you too are demoralized, sad?
5115ill?
5115in building up her strength?
5115its composition, its style?
5115or is it Saint- Antoine that is going to spread its wings over the entire universe?
5115or wait until my trip to Paris?
5115perhaps of my wretched book?
5115that virtue?
5115the point of view of the author?
5115what shall we do with it?
5115where are you nestled?
5115who can know?
5115why and how?
5115you have finished Saint- Antoine?
5115you have not such a conscience as that, have you?
5115you in Paris, in Nohant, or elsewhere?
5115your mother''s health?
