“J’aime pas l'hiver qui se balade sous les vêtements et qui te crevasse les mains, j'aime pas le printemps qui te baratine en te promettant monts et merveilles, j'aime pas l'été qui déverse des nuées de bestioles et qui brûle les promesses, et j'aime pas non plus l'automne qui repeint le décor avec des belles couleurs pour le supprimer après. J'aime pas les saisons d'ici. Y a jamais rien qui change durablement, rien à espérer que de dérouler une corde que d'autres ont enroulée pour nous, rien qui vaille la peine de se battre. On gagne jamais, on attend que ça se passe." P214”

“As the strongman exalts in his physical ability, delighting in such exercises as called his muscles into action, so glories the analyst in that moral activity which disentangles. He derives pleasure from even the most trivial occupations bringing his talent into play. He's fond of enigmas, of conundrums, hieroglyphics; exhibiting in his solutions of each a degree of acumen which appears the ordinary apprehension præternatural.”
