Although Charles Darnay is seem as a very respectable person, there are some flaws to him. To start, he was on trial and it was almost certain that he would be sent to death because of his crimes.

For Sydney Carton, when he tries to approach the fact that he wants to marry Lucy, he goes blindly straight to tell her. Rather than telling Lucy's father first, like Charles Darnay, Carton just went straight forward to telling Lucy and getting rejected. This shows that Carton hasn't been raised in the best way and he is not as polite and respectful as Darnay.

While Sydney Carton is seen as a worse person because of how he looks and acts, he was the person that kept Charles Darnay alive. While Charles was on trial, Sydney was the lawyer who helped state his case. This shows that Sydney should be seen as a more respectable person because of his profession.

While they are both different because of what they have chose to do with their lives, neither of them are seen as bad men.

Charles is a very honorable person because of how loyal and helpful he is to those he's close to. After Gabelle sent him a letter about being captured, Charles made the decision that he "must go to Paris" because Gabelle was "an innocent prisoner, in danger of death, to his justice, honour, and good name" (Dickens 239).

Charles Darnay's main weakness is him being Evremonde because Dr. Manette doesn't like the fact that Lucie married Evremonde. This is shown when Charles tells Dr. Manette, causing Dr. Manette to look "so deadly pale" at the news (Dickens 191).

# data[].attributes.body
During the trial, Miss Manette was supposed to be testifying against Charles Darnay, but soon started talking about how he was "kind, and good and useful to [her] father" (Dickens 73). This proves that even when Darnay is supposed to be considered a bad person, others still think of him as a good man and someone very kind in this world.

Charles shows Doctor Manette how much he truly respects him and looks up to him when Charles has the wish to "'keep no secret from [Doctor Manette],'" showing how respectful he is, especially to his future father-in-law (Dickens 136).

Charles Darnay, a young man of twenty-five, that seems respectful in his looks and outfit, he was "self-possessed" and it seemed as though his "soul [was] to be stronger than the sun" (Dickens 64).

# data[].attributes.body
Sydney doesn't see himself as someone who can accomplish much, causing him to just work along side Stryver. Sydney allows Stryver to talk to him poorly because Sydney is "incapable of his own help and his own happiness... resigning himself to let it eat him away" (Dickens 93). This is also what holds him back because he can't feel happiness.

On top of that, it was shown that Stryver was "'always in the front rank'" while Sydney was "'always behind'" (Dickens 92). This relates to how Sydney always works as Stryver's partner.

Stryver wasn't only a "great ally" to Sydney Carton, but he would also assisted Sydney on conferences (Dickens 89).

Carton has a bad habit of talking poorly about himself and bringing himself down. This is shown when Carton comments on how he is "a dissolute dog" and that he "has never done any good, and never will," implying he's not even good enough to be human (Dickens 205).

# data[].attributes.body
Even though Carton may be very quiet in the court room, he still makes a big impact on whether or not people are set free. For example, during Darnay's case, he had "[written] a word or two on a little piece of paper,  screwed it up, and tossed it to [Stryver]" (Dickens 75). After Stryver had examined what was written on the paper, there was then "great attention and curiosity" while looking at the prisoner. (Dickens 75). This shows just how effective Carton is as a lawyer.

While Sydney Carton and Mr. Stryver were talking late at night about Miss Manette, Stryver kept insulting Carton no how he was "an insensible dog" and that his manners were relevant to a "hangdog" because they were "silent and sullen" (Dickens 138-139). At this, Stryver continues to tell Sydney that he is "a devilish ill-conditioned fellow" and that he is also "a disagreeable fellow" (Dickens 139). The reason for Stryver to be saying these things about Carton was because they were both in love with Lucy and Stryver was trying to make himself look and feel better than Sydney Carton.

# data[].attributes.body
Even though Stryver talked poorly about Sydney because he thought of Sydney to be worse than himself, he still thought of Sydney as "[his] great ally" (Dickens 89). This shows that Stryver considers Carton helpful when they are in court and Stryver only talks poorly about Carton so he can feel better about himself.

While Sydney Carton was in public during the trial, it was clear that he didn't care about his manners since he was "lounging" (Dickens 80) and was unprofessional with "is hands in his pockets, and his eyes on the ceiling as they had been all day" (Dickens 77).

# data[].attributes.body
While Sydney looked like a worse-off Charles Darnay with much comparison between the two, Sydney didn't care about his appearance with his "torn gown half off him" along with his "untidy wig" (Dickens 75-77).

Even with Lucie being in love with Charles, Sydney continues to express his feelings for her. Lucie tries to help him but in return, he talks about how '"all [she could have] ever [done] for [him] is done" (Dickens 150). This also leads Sydney to talking about how she is "'the last dream of [his] soul," proving just how much he continues to care for her.

# data[].attributes.body
While Carton is talking to Stryver, he implies that he has been drinking and that his "'brains [are] frying and sputtering in [his] head'" (Dickens 138). This shows that Carton is talking poorly about himself and what's happening in his head.

After Sydney confesses to Lucie, Lucie starts trying because she's trying to be mournful of him. At this, Sydney starts to talk about how he "'[is] not worth such feeling,'" implying that Lucie shouldn't feel bad about anything (Dickens 152).
