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
It is not the tree that forsakes the flower, but the flower that forsakes the tree.
Alexandre Dumas
To save a man and thereby to spare a father's agony and a mother's feelings is not to do a noble deed, it is but an act of humanity.
Alexandre Dumas
Great is truth. Fire cannot burn it nor water drown it.
