Alexandre Dumas
Tell the angel who will watch over your life to pray now and then for a man who, like Satan, believed himself for an instant to be equal to God, but who realized in all humility that supreme power and wisdom are in the hands of God alone.
Alexandre Dumas
Every individual, from the highest to the lowest degree, has his place in the ladder of social life, and around him swirls a little world of interests, composed of stormy passions and conflicting atoms
Alexandre Dumas
Capricious and unfaithful, the king wished to be called Louis the Just and Louis the Chaste. Posterity will find a difficulty in understanding this character, which history explains only by facts and never by reason.
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
