"Now that we have the real thing, you mince." "Look at her." "Isn't she fleshier than the wall?" "I'd love to, but my head hurts so much." "A little exercise would help." "No, I don't feel like exercising." "Perhaps a spicy tale..." ""A tale"?" "Can't you see madam's flesh quiver?" "Look." "She pants with fright." "We shall make her ours." "Mercy, good sir!"

"You too, sir, must have suffered to describe so justly human lowliness." "Quite exciting." "There were less verbs than usual." "How many times must I tell you that style" " is my business!" " Take off my bandage." "Little do I know about literature, but I found it sublime!" "What intuition, what sensitivity!" "Let's enter her." "Madam, your praises touch the heart of the poor readerless writer that I am." "If you do not consider her unworthy, poor Justine would find relief in hearing your other works." "Do not fall asleep."

"I'll never forget our time together." "I hope your friend will soon be re-established." "Out, I said!" "I've had enough of your filth!" "Murderer!" "You tried to get rid of me out of jealousy!" "You thought she'd prefer me!" "You betrayed our friendship!" "You would not keep quiet while I courted her." "But I was wrong, please forgive me." "Like hell!" "I'm disfigured." "And I know you prefer words to deeds." "Deep down, you do not deserve me." "A misunderstanding." "I swear he did not touch me." "Liar!" "Why would the Governor lock you up with him?" "Because Marquis asked him to!" "Among their class, favors are granted." "You gave him all he asked for, own up!" "Have mercy!" "We spoke of literature." "You prig!" "He buggered you." "But you don't dare say so!" "I'm not good enough for him." "I bet he rammed through every hole, he really polished his acorn." "I caught you trying to give him a hard-on, you wanted more!"

"Blood ties are weaker than money." "The Duke of Orleans..." " Do you know the latest?" " What?" "Did the King pinch his finger?" "Marquis, that degenerate, has done it again!" " Did he escape?" " Much better!" "He raped a poor maiden inside the Bastille!" "At times, my blue blood shames me." "God be damned!" "Are your jails mixed?" "Men and women are separate, but nothing deters that monster." "That fake nun, wasn't that him?" "Fatal!" "And the scandal of the domestic animals." "I'll never defend him." "Allow me:" "Jacquot the Fatalist, barrister of the chicken-coop." "To whom have I the honor?" "Willem van Mandarine, special envoy of the Low-Countries' Gazette in Paris." "Are you interested in Marquis?" "My work is more general:" "The state of the Kingdom in the year 1788." "Prison life also interests me." "Would it be possible to enter the Bastille and leave again?" "You're lucky!" "I fatally know the Governor's paramour." "Yes, it's a novelty." "The most deserving prisoner shares the Xmas lobster." "I hope it becomes a tradition in the Bastille." "I could do with a little more." "I feel strange eating with a prisoner." "What did you do?" "High treason, clandestine opposition?" "A pork trafficker."

" What promise?" "I didn't promise anything!" "Are you backing out?" "I'm losing patience!" "I didn't hit the wall for nothing!" "We had agreed to help them." "I gave my word." "They escape and we stay." "Either we'll leave by the door or nothing." "Ambert!" "Here I am." "What is it?" "I feel a craving for lobsters." "Don't worry, lovely." "I'll bring you a big one!" " A real feast!" " But, Ambert, that's not lobster." "It's crawfish." "Whatever, but you must earn it!" "Your smell!" "Your smell!" "I can't wait!" "Come, my doggie!" "Come!" "Didn't you want to lead your own life?" " Show them what you've got." " I can't." "Come, little one." " Come!" " Courage!" "I couldn't, even with a helmet." " Debunking?" " Let me into my pants!" "You're taking a long time!" "Enough whisperings!" "What can we do?" "Stick in the lobster!" "It's a crawfish." "Ram it up!" "It won't fit." "With mayonnaise." "The boat is there." "The coach too." "Everything is as regular as clockwork." "Bring in your wooden ham first." "So good!" "I'm not sorry to have waited so long." "Wait, not too fast." "I want it to last."

"Jacquot had said so!" "However, the people lack experience." "Fatality, fate's irony!" "Our only professional conspirator is in jail!" "The goal of the operation "Hot Summer"" "will be to deliver Lupino, the providential man who'll lead us to victory." "I hope it will be more successful than "Xmas at the Balcony"." "A costly failure, that was!" "It will work out!" "If Jacquot says so, it will fatally work!" "Jacquot also said so last year about operation "A Free Michaelmas", after I greased the guards' palms." "The plot wasn't worth a damn." "How could Jacquot foresee that the guards would get drunk and forget to open the gate?" "It will be a hot summer, citizens," "I'll take an oath on it." "And I'm also running out of tricks." "The Governor constantly wants more." "I'll end up having to kill him to please him." "I'll give you till mid-July before I stop financing the Revolution."
