Alexandre Dumas Quotes

Come Here, Grimaud," Said Athos. To Punish You For Having Spoken Without Leave My Friend, You Must Eat This Piece Of Paper: Then, To Reward You For The Service Which You Will Have Rendered Us, You Shall Afterwards Drink This Glass Of Wine. Here Is The Letter First: Chew It Hard."
Grimaud Smiled, And With His Eyes Fixed On The Glass Which Athos Filled To The Very Brim, Chewed Away At The Paper, And Finally Swallowed It.
"Bravo, Master Grimaud!" Said Athos. "and Now Take This. Good! I Will Dispense With Your Saying Thank You."
Grimaud Silently Swallowed The Glass Of Bordeaux; But During The Whole Time That This Pleasant Operation Lasted, His Eyes, Which Were Fixed Upon The Heavens, Spoke A Language Which, Though Mute, Was Not Therefore The Least Expressive.
