“The child is small, and he includes the man; the brain is narrow, and it harbours thought; the eye is but a point, and it covers leagues”
― Alexandre Dumas-fils, La dame aux camélias

“The difference between genius and stupidity is: genius has its limits.”
― Alexandre Dumas-fils

“Qué es la vida? Un frenesí.
¿Qué es la vida? Una ilusión,
una sombra, una ficción,
y el mayor bien es pequeño:
que toda la vida es sueño,
y los sueños, sueños son”
― Pedro Calderon de la Barca, La vida es sueño / El alcalde de Zalamea

“I gave myself to you sooner than I ever did to any man, I swear to you; and do you know why? Because when you saw me spitting blood you took my hand; because you wept; because you are the only human being who has ever pitied me. I am going to say a mad thing to you: I once had a little dog who looked at me with a sad look when I coughed; that is the only creature I ever loved. When he died I cried more than when my mother died. It is true that for twelve years of her life she used to beat me. Well, I loved you all at once, as much as my dog. If men knew what they can have for a tear, they would be better loved and we should be less ruinous to them.”
― Alexandre Dumas-fils, La Dame aux Camélias
