"The chains of marriage are so heavy that it takes two to bear them, sometimes three."
"The merit of all things lies in their difficulty."
"Words are like leaves; and where they most abound, Much fruit of sense beneath is rarely found."
"Happiness is like a ball; we run after it while it is rolling, and we kick it when it stops."
"For the happy man, time is a river; for the unhappy, it is a torrent."
French Romantic novelist whose The Three Musketeers (1844) and The Count of Monte Cristo (1844-46) defined the historical-adventure novel and were translated into more languages than any other French author. Closely associated with Victor Hugo (French Romantic peer and Les Misérables author). For an intellectual contrast, see Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) — Flaubert's Madame Bovary (1856) replaced Dumas's swashbuckling adventure with psychological-realist detail — Flaubert's three-month searches for the right adjective are the precise opposite of Dumas's serial-installment plot-machine. French literature pivoted from Romantic to Realist in a single generation, with Dumas and Flaubert as the cleanest poles.
