Monday Morning Quote – Alexandre Dumas on the Sum of All Human Wisdom
It’s Monday again. Time for a resounding, collective “meh”—and, of course, time for another Monday Morning Quote. This week’s quote is by the prolific French author, Alexandre Dumas, who is best known for his novels The Count of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers. Seeing as it’s Monday and all, we just wanted to give you something to hope for, though the bleakness of this quote isn’t necessarily the best place to start. Enjoy!

Live then, beloved children of my heart, and never forget that, until the day God deigns to reveal the future to man, the sum of all human wisdom will be contained in these words: Wait and hope.
- The Count of Monte Cristo |

Alexandre Dumas is a excellent writer! I will randomly take a book from him and read it.
Thanks for your Monday Morning Quote, always interesting to read to take a break from work.
I would have loved to read the French version of it
