Alexandre Dumas — "That which is actually good never alters."

"Moral wounds have this peculiarity - they may be hidden, but they never close; always painful, always ready to bleed when touched, they remain fresh and open in the heart."

"Justice is a slow process, but it is sure."

"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…"

"Happiness is like a ball; we run after it while it is rolling, and we kick it when it stops."

"It is not the business of the law to punish men for their thoughts."
