More quotes by 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
Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes.
Alexandre Dumas
It is only the dead who do not return.
Alexandre Dumas
...for, however all other feelings may be withered in a woman's nature, there is always one bright smiling spot in the maternal breast, and that is where a dearly-beloved child is concerned.
Alexandre Dumas
You who are in power have only the means that money produces — we who are in expectation, have those which devotion prompts.
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
Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it.
Alexandre Dumas
Wait and hope!
Alexandre Dumas
It is the way of weakened minds to see everything through a black cloud. The soul forms its own horizons your soul is darkened, and consequently the sky of the future appears stormy and unpromising
Alexandre Dumas
If you wish to discover the guilty person, first find out to whom the crime might be useful.
Alexandre Dumas
...joy takes a strange effect at times, it seems to oppress us almost the same as sorrow.
Alexandre Dumas
One's work may be finished someday, but one's education never.
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
Love is the most selfish of all the passions.
Alexandre Dumas
Within six months, if I am not dead, I shall have seen you again, madam--even if I have to overturn the world.
Alexandre Dumas
A rogue does not laugh in the same way that an honest man does a hypocrite does not shed the tears of a man of good faith. All falsehood is a mask and however well made the mask may be, with a little attention we may always succeed in distinguishing it from the true face.
Alexandre Dumas
So heavy is the chain of wedlock that it needs two to carry it, and sometimes three.
Alexandre Dumas
Pure love and suspicion cannot dwell together: at the door where the latter enters, the former makes its exit.
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
Be kind. Aim for my heart.
Alexandre Dumas
