Words for Wednesday

Food for thought from Count of Monte Cristo

"Once you have made the sacrifice of your life, you are no longer the equal of other men; or rather, they are no longer your equal, because whoever has taken such a resolution instantly feels his strength increase ten times and his outlook vastly extended." (p. 432)


"God has diluted our reason with a madness called hope." (p. 1070)

Thought-provoking words, indeed. Thanks for sharing. I especially like the last one, "God has diluted our reason with a madness called hope."
