"All human wisdom is contained in these words: Wait and hope!" ~by Alexandre Dumas, père from "The Count of Monte Cristo" (1845–1846)[This beloved novel tells the story of Edmond Dantès, wrongfully imprisoned for life in the supposedly impregnable sea fortress, the Château d’If. After a daring escape, and after unearthing a hidden treasure revealed to him by a fellow prisoner, he devotes the rest of his life to tracking down and punishing the enemies who wronged him.]
"Friendship consists in forgetting what one gives and remembering what one receives." ~Alexandre Dumas, 1803-1870
"How is it that little children are so intelligent and men so stupid? It must be education that does it." ~Alexandre Dumas
"Learning does not make one learned: there are those who have knowledge and those who have understanding. The first requires memory and the second philosophy." ~Alexandre Dumas
"Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes." ~Alexandre Dumas
"Only a man who has felt ultimate despair is capable of feeling ultimate bliss." ~Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870)
“The sum of all human wisdom will be contained in these two words: Wait and Hope.” ~ Alexander Dumas, ‘The Count of Monte Cristo,’ one of Rizal’s favorite books

(Dumas's most popular novel has long been a favorite with children, and its swashbuckling heroes are well known from many a film and TV adaptation. Set in 17th-century France, this tale of the adventures of D'Artagnan and the three musketeers is the finest example of its author's brilliantly inventive storytelling genius.)

"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 (1802-1870)
