There is no such thing as a natural death: nothing that ever happens to a man is ever natural, since his presence calls the world into question.

More from Alexandre Dumas
"All generalizations are dangerous, even this one."
"How can I be a good man if I don't know how to be a bad one?"
"There are two ways of seeing: with the body and with the soul. The body's sight can sometimes forget, but the soul remembers forever."
"The greatest pleasure in life is to do what people say you cannot do."
"The human heart is a strange thing. It is capable of the greatest love and the greatest hatred."
About Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870)
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.
