More quotes by Alexandre Dumas
Happiness is egotistical.
Alexandre Dumas

Alexandre Dumas
In love, writing is dangerous, not to mention pointless.
Alexandre Dumas
...joy takes a strange effect at times, it seems to oppress us almost the same as sorrow.
Alexandre Dumas
How did I escape? With difficulty. How did I plan this moment? With pleasure!
Alexandre Dumas
The hungry men were seen, followed by their valets, roaming the quais and guards' quarters gleaning from their outside friends all the dinners they could find for, according to Aramis, in prosperity one should sow meals right and left, in order to harvest some in adversity.
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
Yet man will never be perfect until he learns to create and destroy he does know how to destroy, and that is half the battle.
Alexandre Dumas
I am hungry, feed me I am bored, amuse me.
Alexandre Dumas

Alexandre Dumas

Alexandre Dumas
The difference between treason and patriotism is only a matter of dates.
Alexandre Dumas
Besides we are men, and after all it is our business to risk our lives.
Alexandre Dumas
Are there not some places where we seem to breathe sadness? — why, we cannot tell. It is a chain of recollections — an idea which carries you back to other times, to other places — which, very likely, have no connection with the present time and place.
Alexandre Dumas
Upon my word, said Dantes, you make me shudder. Is the world filled with tigers and crocodiles? Yes and remember that two legged tigers and crocodiles are more dangerous than the others.
Alexandre Dumas
So heavy is the chain of wedlock that it needs two to carry it, and sometimes three.
Alexandre Dumas
All for one, one for all, that is our device.
Alexandre Dumas
Through the ingenuousness of her age beamed an ardent mind, a mind not of the women but of the poet she did not please, she intoxicated.
Alexandre Dumas
