More quotes by Alexandre Dumas
All for one, one for all, that is our device.
Alexandre Dumas
Nothing makes time pass or shortens the way like a thought that absorbs in itself all the faculties of the one who is thinking. External existence is then like a sleep of which this thought is the dream. Under its influence, time has no more measure, space has no more distance.
Alexandre Dumas
...remember that what has once been done may be done again.
Alexandre Dumas
What a fool I was, not to tear my heart out on the day when I resolved to revenge myself!
Alexandre Dumas
...know you not that you are my sun by day, and my star by night? By my faith! I was in deepest darkness till you appeared and illuminated all.
Alexandre Dumas
In all times, and all countries especially in those countries which are divided within by religious faith, there are always fanatics who will be well contented to be regarded as martyrs.
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

Alexandre Dumas
That is a dream also only he has remained asleep, while you have awakened and who knows which of you is the most fortunate?
Alexandre Dumas
I hate this life of the fashionable world, always ordered, measured, ruled, like our music-paper. What I have always wished for, desired, and coveted, is the life of an artist, free and independent, relying only on my own resources, and accountable only to myself.
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
Life is a storm. One minute you will bathe under the sun and the next you will be shattered upon the rocks. That's when you shout, Do your worst, for I will do mine! and you will be remembered forever.
Alexandre Dumas
If you wish to discover the guilty person, first find out to whom the crime might be useful.
Alexandre Dumas
It is only the dead who do not return.
Alexandre Dumas
The difference between treason and patriotism is only a matter of dates.
Alexandre Dumas
Sometimes one has suffered enough to have the right to never say: I am too happy.
Alexandre Dumas
Never fear quarrels, but seek hazardous adventures.
Alexandre Dumas
......When one loves, one is only too ready to believe one's love returned.
Alexandre Dumas
When you compare the sorrows of real life to the pleasures of the imaginary one, you will never want to live again, only to dream forever.
Alexandre Dumas
