Alexandre Dumas
It is the infirmity of our nature always to believe ourselves much more unhappy than those who groan by our sides!
Alexandre Dumas
You who weep for pleasures fled, While dragging on a life of care, All your woes will melt in air, If to god your tears are shed, You who Weap!
Alexandre Dumas
In business, sir, one has no friends, only correspondents.
Alexandre Dumas
So rapid is the flight of our dreams upon the wings of imagination.
Alexandre Dumas
It was like the eve of a battle the hearts beat, the eyes laughed, and they felft that the life they were perhaps going to lose, was after all, a good thing.
Alexandre Dumas
I know what happiness and what despair are, and I never make a jest of such feelings. Take it, then, but in exchange —
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
