More quotes by Alexandre Dumas
All for one and one for all, united we stand divided we fall.
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
It is quite rare for God to provide a great man at the necessary moment to carry out some great deep, which is why when this unusual combination of circumstance does occur, history at once records the name of the chosen one and recommends him to the admiration of posterity.
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
Pain, thou art not an evil
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
As a general rule...people ask for advice only in order not to follow it or if they do follow it, in order to have someone to blame for giving it.
Alexandre Dumas
Mastery of language affords one remarkable opportunities.
Alexandre Dumas
Moral wounds have this peculiarity - they may be hidden, but they never close always painful, always ready to bleed when touched, they remain fresh and open in the heart.
Alexandre Dumas
If it is ones lot to be cast among fools, one must learn foolishness.-The Count of Monte Cristo
Alexandre Dumas
The wretched and miserable should turn to their Saviour first, yet they do not hope in Him until all other hope is exhausted.
Alexandre Dumas
Time, dear friend, time brings round opportunity opportunity is the martingale of man. The more we have ventured the more we gain, when we know how to wait.
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
You who are in power have only the means that money produces — we who are in expectation, have those which devotion prompts.
Alexandre Dumas
The air in Provence is impregnated with the aroma of garlic, which makes it very healthful to breathe.
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
It is only the dead who do not return.
Alexandre Dumas
Only a man who has felt ultimate despair is capable of feeling ultimate bliss.
Alexandre Dumas
There is neither happiness nor misery in the world there is only the comparison of one state with another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness.
Alexandre Dumas
There is no friendship that cares about an overheard secret.
Alexandre Dumas
