Actually, from reading Dumas's work, it appears that "All for one and one for all" is correct, and that "One for all, and all for one" is the inversion. I suspect this would be the context in which most people would place the motto. Other forms of the motto, such as the Latin, agree with this article.
So how do I make the redirect ("All for one, and one for all") the real article for the motto with respect to the Musketeers, with a link to this one, the present "real" article, and give this article a link to the other one?
From "The Three Musketeers", Chapter 9, D’Artagnan Shows Himself:
- "And now, gentlemen," said D’Artagnan, without stopping to explain his conduct to Porthos, "All for one, one for all-- that is our motto, is it not?"
- "And yet-- " said Porthos.
- "Hold out your hand and swear!" cried Athos and Aramis at once.
- Overcome by example, grumbling to himself, nevertheless, Porthos stretched out his hand, and the four friends repeated with one voice the formula dictated by D’Artagnan:
- "All for one, one for all."
- "That's well! Now let us everyone retire to his own home," said D'Artagnan, as if he had done nothing but command all his life; "and attention! For from this moment we are at feud with the cardinal."
This is the only place I'd seen any form of the motto until I came here.
