Charles Darnay, while confessing that he loved Lucy to Dr. Manette, admitted that he just wanted to  "look only to sharing... fortunes, sharing... life and home, and being faithful to you to the death" (Dickens 117). Darnay is loyal, faithful, and only wants to share the best with people.

Carton thinks about his own death frequently even mentioning the bible verse, "'I am the Resurrection and the Life, saith the Lord: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die'" while thinking about the present deaths, future deaths, and his death (Dickens 329).

There is not a lot of physical details about Carton but it is mention that how he is "reckless in his demeanor" and how that gives him "a disreputable look" (Dickens 66). In this is also mentions how even with these flaws it hasn't "diminished the strong resemblance he undoubtedly bore" to Darnay, hinting that other than their personalties Darnay and Carton look alike (67).

# data[].attributes.body
Darnay is a very put-together man, which helps him stay cool in many situations and boosting his rationality. When approached with a scenario he still manages to stay "quiet and attentive", making him very stable, another pro of this gentleman(Dickens 55-56).

# data[].attributes.body
Carton is very "reckless in his demeanor" with a "disreputable look" which makes him seem untrustworthy and irresponsible; these flaws making him an easy target in the public eye (Dickens 66).

# data[].attributes.body
One of Carton's strengths is his loyalty, specifically for the character Lucy. In the novel he repeatedly mentions how much he loves Lucy, to the point that he treasures her so much that even if she refuses to love him he will still do "anything" for his "dear", pointing out just how loyal he is to the point that his loyalty can be one-sided (Dickens 133).

Charles does not have many weaknesses, and those he does have are out of his control. For instance, he cannot control how the family he was born into paints a target on his back, and how his sympathy can sometimes get the best of him. When he got the letter to help his friend in France, he had many mixed emotions but decided to go anyways as "the latent uneasiness in Darnay’s mind was roused to vigorous life by this letter" (Dickens 211). Darnay can easily be defeated by his inner emotions and wants, even though he is a very composed man.

Sydney looks down on himself, saying things such as, "'I shall never be better than I am'" to himself, showing how pitiful he is (Dickens 131).

# data[].attributes.body
Charles is very much a romantic type of person, as when he told Doctor Manette, "'You have loved yourself; let your old love speak for me!'" he was mentioning how that Mr. Manette must have some advice because he was in love once and he knew the struggles you have to go through (Dickens 116).

# data[].attributes.body
Carton is a very negative character, and can even be diagnosed with a type of suicidal depression with how he has been seen to be acting. Most notably when he is talking to Charles Darnay and says that the earth "'has no good in it for me—except wine like this—nor I for it'"; he then continues to go on about how much life sucks, to further emphasize his point. (Dickens 72).

# data[].attributes.body
Charles is very polite and grateful. For example after he was sent to trial for treason, and survived he told his supporter, "'“You have laid me under an obligation to you for life—in two
senses,'" because the supporter helped Darnay stay alive (Dickens 70).

# data[].attributes.body
During the trial to which we meet Darnay, he is seen as a kind, level-headed man. Multiple other characters believe he is polite such as Miss Manette saying, "When the gentleman came on board..." to which was cut off by the judge correcting "You meant the prisoner?"(Dickens 62). The judge in this scenario is biased and does not allow Darnay a chance, however, everyone else seems to find Darnay respectable so they talk about him in that way.

# data[].attributes.body
When Charles Darnay is first being accused of treason in the courtroom he is described as being the age of "about five-and-twenty", being "well-grown and well-looking" and having "dark eye(s)"; His hair was accordingly "long and dark" presented "in a ribbon at the back of his neck" which seemed to have the purpose of keeping his hair back then for a decorative purpose (Dickens 64).

Carton was a drunk who never seemed "to be quite sober", and laughed at his best moments while he "filled up his glass again: which was a large one" (Dickens 85-86).

# data[].attributes.body
Sydney continues to work for Stryver, refuses to leave, and lets Stryver speak to him in such a negative way because that is all Carton knows, as Stryver says himself, "you have fallen into you rank, and I have fallen into mine" (Dickens 92).

# data[].attributes.body
Sydney's childhood explains his present decisions as much like him doing all of the work for Stryver, when he was in grade school he "did exercises for other boys" instead of doing his own and he prioritized himself lower than everyone else (Dickens 91).

# data[].attributes.body
Carton's and Stryver's relationship was rather interesting, with Carton seen as an unpromising man but still "Stryver’s
great ally", Stryver's "jackal", which seemed to be the only thing he was good at, and producing "service to Stryver in that humble capacity" (Dickens 89).

# data[].attributes.body
The other characters talk about Sydney Carton like he is unsuccessful, and unintelligent, solely based on his looks. One of the characters even claimed that he would bet money against Carton, as he bets that "'he don’t get no law-work to do'" as he "'don’t look like the sort of one to get any, do he?"'(Dickens 67).

# data[].attributes.body
The characters are much more empathetic to Carton's face starting with things such as, "'much to be regretted" but ending with their real thoughts like, "'you might have used your talents better'" representing how they are nicer to his face then behind his back, however, they still sweat the fact that he could do better(Dickens 74).

# data[].attributes.body
Charles Darnay is different compared to Sydney Carter as Carter seems to be bored while Darnay is "quiet and attentive"; Carter presents himself as being lax and sloppy while Darnay stands "composedly" and with a purpose(Dickens 55-56).

# data[].attributes.body
Charles is very unlike Carton in a way that he is very sympathetic even saying in the novel, "'One cannot help... having had some sympathy for the miserable people'" (Dickens 206).

# data[].attributes.body
Charles Darnay was very polite when confessing his love to Lucie, even asking her father's permission before even thinking about asking her and saying to him, "'Dear Doctor Manette, I love your daughter fondly, dearly, disinterestedly, devotedly. If ever there were love in the world, I love her'" (Dickens 132).

# data[].attributes.body
Sydney is not very sympathetic and is seen as the "idlest and most unpromising of men," very different compared to Darnay's sympathetic and respectful stature (Dickens 75).

# data[].attributes.body
Carton is very neutral about things and tends to have the appearance of boredom by "looking at the ceiling of the court" and refusing to change "his place nor his attitude" even when it was at a moment of excitement (Dickens 77).

# data[].attributes.body
Carton was not polite when asking Miss Manette to date him, and even guilt-tripped her by saying "'Let me carry through the rest of my misdirected life, the remembrance that I opened my heart to you'" in hopes that she would feel bad and take him in (Dickens 151).

# data[].attributes.body
Both of these men, very different in personalities can be seen throughout the novel to have undying loyalty to Lucy. To the point where Carton sacrificed himself so Lucy could be with her love.

# data[].attributes.body
Both Carton's and Darnay's appearances are very similar, even with them being complete opposites personality-wise with Carton being "careless" and Darnay being attentive, but even so "they were sufficiently like each other" in appearance and the like (Dickens 65).

# data[].attributes.body
Darnay felt a tone of "'fervent admiration, true homage, and deep love'"(Dickens 132) for Miss Manette which is common to how Carter felt about her which is that maybe she "'could have returned the love of the man you see before you'"(Dickens 150). Both of them are very in love with Miss Manette, however, both of them handle their passion in different ways.
