Alexandre Dumas Love Quotations

Love is the most selfish of all the passions.

We must never expect discretion in first love: it is accompanied by such excessive joy that unless the joy is allowed to overflow, it will choke you.

In love, writing is dangerous, not to mention pointless.

......When one loves, one is only too ready to believe one's love returned.

Everyone knows that drunkards and lovers have a protecting diety.

True love always makes a man better, no matter what woman inspires it.

Pure love and suspicion cannot dwell together: at the door where the latter enters, the former makes its exit.

There is neither happiness nor unhappiness in this world; there is only the comparison of one state with another. Only a man who has felt ultimate despair is capable of feeling ultimate bliss. It is necessary to have wished for death in order to know how good it is to live.....the sum of all human wisdom will be contained in these two words: Wait and Hope.

Woman is sacred; the woman one loves is holy.
