Alexandre Dumas
No, I slept as I always do when I am bored and have not the courage to amuse myself, or when I am hungry and have not the desire to eat.--The Count of Monte Cristo
Alexandre Dumas
A person who doubts himself is like a man who would enlist in the ranks of his enemies and bear arms against himself.
Alexandre Dumas
Sometimes one has suffered enough to have the right to never say: I am too happy.
Alexandre Dumas
Hatred is blind rage carries you away and he who pours out vengeance runs the risk of tasting a bitter draught.
Alexandre Dumas
I do not often laugh, sir, as you may perceive by the air of my countenance but nevertheless, I retain the privilege of laughing when I please.
Alexandre Dumas
Pain, thou art not an evil
Alexandre Dumas
Often we pass beside happiness without seeing it, without looking at it, or even if we have seen and looked at it, without recognizing it.
Alexandre Dumas
When a man resolves to avenge himself, he should first of all tear out the heart from his breast.
Alexandre Dumas
Without reflecting that this is the only moment in which you can study character, said the count on the steps of the scaffold death tears off the mask that has been worn through life, and the real visage is disclosed.
Alexandre Dumas
Never fear quarrels, but seek hazardous adventures.
Alexandre Dumas
