"'But you may have excited jealousy. You are about to become captain at nineteen - an elevated post; you are about to marry a pretty girl, who loves you. And these two pieces of good fortune may have excited the envy of some one.'

'You are right; you know men better than I do, and what you say may possibly be the case, I confess. But if such persons are among my acquaintances I prefer not to know it, because then I should be forced to hate them'"


- The Count of Monte Cristo
