If his mind had not been wool-gathering, the ingenious child would, at the outset, have quietly climbed up a tree, as he did at the end of a quarter of an hour's mad race, instead of growing breathless and running the risk of pleurisy.Si son esprit n’eût pas couru la pretentaine, l’ingénieux enfant, sans tant s’essouffler ni risquer une pleurésie, aurait, dès les premiers pas, monté tranquillement sur un arbre, comme il le fit, au bout d’un quart d’heure de course folle.Zola, Emile / Contes à NinonZola, Emile / Stories for NinonStories for NinonZola, EmileContes à NinonZola, Emile
