Alexandre Dumas-fils

“I am proud of who I am, and nobody's going to steal that.”
“This is a key point which the secularists are missing: they think that stressing God's mercy means that sins are no longer sins. On the contrary, God's mercy is a great gift of grace precisely because sins are sins and they call for repentance and forgiveness.”
“Comedy is my passion. I'm going to do this until I drop.”
“Technology has the shelf life of a banana.”
“A great empire, like a great cake, is most easily diminished at the edges.”
“The art of compromise centers on the willingness to give up something in order to get something else in return. Successful artists get more than they give up.”

“I did not like 'The Hurt Locker.' It's a lazy way to make a movie, frankly. I could put you on the edge of your seat quite easily, and have you feel the tension for 2 hours, if every other scene practically is, 'Should we cut the red wire or the green wire?'”
“Of course, in all magic tricks theres a secret.”
