‘Huh! A husband is not always merry,’ said Caderousse. ‘The fact is,’ Dantès said, ‘that I am too happy at this moment to be merry. If that’s what you mean, neighbour, you are right. Joy may sometimes produce strange effects and be as oppressive as sorrow.’ Danglars was watching Fernand, whose impressionable nature absorbed and reflected his every feeling.
"Ah!" sighed Caderousse, “a man cannot always feel happy because he’s about to be married!”
“The truth is,” replied Dantès, “that I am too happy for a noisy mirth; if that is what you meant by your observation, my worthy friend, you were right; joy takes a strange effect at times, it seems to oppress almost as much as sorrow.”

joy takes a strange effect at times, it seems to oppress almost as much as sorrow..
