Alexandre Dumas
I am not proud, but I am happy and happiness blinds, I think, more than pride.
Alexandre Dumas
For all evils there are two remedies - time and silence.
Alexandre Dumas
Business? It's quite simple it's other people's money.
Alexandre Dumas
The air in Provence is impregnated with the aroma of garlic, which makes it very healthful to breathe.
