“Monsieur Man-in-a-hurry, you can find me without running—ME, you understand?”

“One always hurries towards happiness, Monsieur Danglars, because when one has suffered much, one is at pains to believe in it.”

“A man is always in a hurry to be happy.”

“If you break this door you will find me dead on the threshold."And be easy, madame, you shall be revenged," said Bussy.”

“Without words, protestations, or vows, I have laid my life in your hands. You fail me, and, I repeat once more, you are quite right in acting thus; nevertheless in losing you I lose part of my life.”

“You're not worried about anything, are you?" said Danglers. "It seems to me everything's going perfectly for you." "That's exactly what worries me," replied Dantes. "I don't think man was meant to attain happiness so easily. Happiness is like those palaces in fairy tales whose gates are guarded by dragons: we must fight in order to conquer it.”

“I love the life you've always made so sweet for me and I'd regret it if I had to die.''Do you mean to say that if I left you---''I'd die, yes.''Then you love me?”
