MP3 Audio CD. The Tribulations of a Chinaman in China
I
OR THE PERSONALITY AND NATIONALITY OF CHARACTERS DISREGARD
GRADUALLY
"But we must agree that life is good! cried one of the
guests, leaning on the arm of his marble-backed seat, in
nibbling a water lily root to sugar.
- And bad too! replied, between two coughing fits, a
other than the spiciness of a delicate shark fin had failed
strangle!
- Let's be philosophers! then says an older character, whose
nose supported a huge pair of glasses with wide glasses,
mounted on wooden stems. Today, we risk strangling,
and tomorrow everything goes as sweet pass swallowed this
nectar! It's life, after all! "
And that said, this epicurean, of accommodating mood, swallowed a glass
an excellent warm wine, whose light steam escaped
slowly from a metal teapot.
"As for me," said a fourth guest, "the existence seems to me
very acceptable, as long as we do nothing and we have the means
to do nothing!
-- Fault! retorted the fifth. Happiness is in the study and the
job. Acquire as much knowledge as possible
it's trying to make oneself happy!
- And to learn that, all in all, we do not know anything!
