Our duty is to feel what is great and love what is beautiful - not to accept all the social conventions and the infamies they impose on us. - Gustave Flaubert (Madame Bovary Quotes)

Our duty is to feel what is great and love what is beautiful – not to accept all the social conventions and the infamies they impose on us.[Le devoir, c’est de sentir ce qui est grand, de chérir ce qui est beau, et non pas d’accepter toutes les conventions de la société, avec les ignominies qu’elle nous impose.]
