Their union would be a prolongation of entombment, an aggravation of ruin, a repetition of the haughty wretchedness of the past, of the everlasting peevish sulking which depressed and benumbed one!

– Justement, moi qui ai la dent depuis hier midi, rechigne Lamuse, dont l’œil est humide de désir et dont les joues présentent de gros coups de badigeon de la couleur du vin.

The authorities can scarcely accuse us of having voted like a lot of sulking school-boys, any more than they can reproach us with having gone down on our knees before the government.
