A Quote by Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Love is the smallest part of gallantry. — © Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Love is the smallest part of gallantry.
He had never known such gallantry as the gallantry of Scarlett O'Hara going forth to conquer the world in her mother's velvet curtains and the tail feathers of a rooster.
We are told that the first part of the process is to select the very smallest seeds from the smallest plants, which is not at all unlikely, but I cannot speak to the fact from my own observation.
You have to create love and affection for your body, for what it can do for you. Love must be incarnated in the smallest pore of the skin, the smallest cell of the body to make them intelligent so they can collaborate with all the other ones, in the big republic of the body. This love must radiate from you to others.
This is not a phone business. This is the smallest video camera, it's the smallest computer, smallest TV.
One part of love is innocence One part of love is guilt One part the milk that in a sense Is soured as soon as spilt One part of love is sentiment One part of love is lust One part is the presentiment Of our return to dust
I would rather instill in my amateur students love, than knowledge, of music. Left with only knowledge, they will at the end close their books and consign the course to forgetfulness. But if they have learned to love but the smallest part of the art, they are likely to pursue some phase of it the rest of their lives.
Pure love ... knows that only one thing is needed to please God: to do even the smallest things out of great love - love, and always love.
In France, you have 900 years of romantic love going back to the troubadours and minstrels that wrote stories of Lancelot and Guinevere. You have gallantry at the highest level.
What shall I say of the gallantry with which these Marines have fought! Of the slopes of Hill 142; of the Mares Farm; of the Bois de Belleau and the Village of Bouresches stained with their blood, and not only taken away from the Germans in the full tide of their advance against the French, but held by my boys against counter attacks day after day and night after night. I cannot write of their splendid gallantry without tears coming to my eyes.
the smallest part is worthy of the whole.
Underwriting is probably the smallest part of our business.
I'm the smallest man in show business, and I've got the smallest bird in Britain nesting in my garden.
I know that God our Father is in this work in great congregations . . . and in the smallest branch and the smallest congregation.
I've always been one of the smallest, if not the smallest guy on the football field.
Never fear to bring the sublimest motive to the smallest duty, and the most infinite comfort to the smallest trouble.
The mystery of God touches us - or does not - in the smallest details: giving a strawberry, with love; receiving a touch, with love; sharing the snapdragon red of an autumn sunset, with love.
