Happiness quote by Alexandre Dumas




There is neither happiness nor unhappiness in this world;
there is onlythe 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 humanwisdom will be contained in these
two words: Wait and Hope.
Alexandre Dumas (The Count of Monte Cristo)

  1. I have read Dumas's Monte Cristo twice and always fell back on that piece of wisdom. I am touched. Suffering teaches joy. Thank you again!
