Charles Darnay receives a letter from a former servant who had left his property to who now is in prison. His constant thoughts, "The latent uneasiness in Darnay’s mind was roused to vigorous life by this letter. The peril of an old servant and a good one, whose only crime was fidelity to himself and his family, stared him so reproachfully in the face, that, as he walked to and fro in the Temple considering what to do, he almost hid his face from the passers-by" (Dickens 211).

Darnay is speaking to Mr. Lorry about his desire to return to France. He starts by saying, "My dear Mr. Lorry, it is because I am a Frenchman born, that the thought (which I did not mean to utter here, however) has passed through my mind often. One cannot help thinking, having had some sympathy for the miserable people, and having abandoned something to them,” he spoke here in his former thoughtful manner, “that one might be listened to, and might have the power to persuade to some restraint" (Dickens 206)

# data[].attributes.body
Stryver does not stand up for himself at any time, he thinks that he deserves to be treated not like the rest of society. Sydney has not always made the best life decisions but he is trying to reconstruct himself to be better but everyone around him is constantly bashing him for the way he is. Carton is "incapable of his own help and own happiness" (Dickens 92). Sydney is holding himself back, he is very intelligent but he lacks confidence and is very tired of constantly being shut down by Stryver. This is why he remains in the shadows of Stryver and others.

Some of Cartons weaknesses are that he doesn't use his brains to his full extent, enigment, and weak game. These are some of Cartons weaknesses because the books tells us that he is very intelligent but never uses those smarts to accomplish things because he often thinks he won't do it correctly or get the credit for it. Sydney also gives up very easily when he thinks he can't do something and often does the bare minimum to survive.

# data[].attributes.body
Some of Sydney Cartons strengths are that he has his beauty, brains, and that he is a philosophical big-thinker. Sydney Carton has many strengths but these are few that mostly describe him because he has his good looks which attract others, he is very intelligent when it comes to the problems around him, and he usually tends to think big which shows that he thinks outside of the box and thinks more of the big picture rather than the problem at hand.

# data[].attributes.body

Carton trusts Darnay with these thoughts at dinner after the trial. Carton states, "As to me, the greatest desire I have, is to forget that I belong to it. It has no good in it for me—except wine like this—nor I for it. So we are not much alike in that particular. Indeed, I begin to think we are not much alike in any particular, you and I" (Dickens 72).

At Darnay's trial, Carton tried to argue that Charles could be mistaken for another person, by saying, "Something especially reckless in his demeanor, not only gave him a disreputable look, but so diminished the strong resemblance he undoubtedly bore to the prisoner" (Dickens 66).

Sydney is ungrateful for the attributes of life, as he says, "as to me, my greatest desire is to forget I belong to [the world]. It has no good in it for me" (Dickens 33).
