Alexandre Dumas Quote

That happy time when we were so unhappy!

When unbridled love enters the heart, it gnaws away at all other feelings; it lives at the expense of honor, faith, and the given word.

Duty is what we demand from others.

Life is so uncertain, that happiness must be seized at the moment it presents itself.

In politics, my dear, and you know it as well as I do, there are no men, but ideas; no feelings, but interests; in politics, a man is not killed, but an obstacle is removed.

Misfortune is also necessary to discover certain mysterious mines hidden in human intelligence.

There are two looks: The look of the body may forget at times, but the soul always remembers.

The friends we lose do not rest in the earth, they are buried in our hearts.

In love, the one who doubts accuses.

The pride of those who cannot build is to destroy.

Until the day when God deigns to decipher the future for man, all human wisdom will be summed up in two words: Trust and hope!

There is neither fortune nor misfortune in the world, but the comparison of one state with another, that is all. Only the one who has experienced the height of misfortune can feel supreme happiness. It is necessary to have wanted to die, my friend, to know how good and beautiful life is.
