Les comédiens de province, 1842. - Oui mon cher, oui les barbares m'ont sifflé dans Cinna; et cependant tu m'as vu dans Cinna! - Oui je t'ai vu, je peux m'en flatter, mais vois-tu les provinciaux c'est de la panade; débuté aux Français, va trouver Mr. J.J. fais toi soigner, demande cent mille francs par an et on t'applaudira.... mais tu veux réussir avec 1500 f. d'appointemens et à Beauvais...... cornichon! (The provincial actors. - Can you imagine, my dear, these barbarians were hissing during my performance in "Cinna"; and you have seen me in "Cinna". - Yes, I flatter myself having seen you, but you must understand that these provincials are utter simpletons. Once you have your debut at the Theatre Français, you'll be seeing Mr. J.J. who will pamper you, you'll be asking 100,000 francs annual salary, and they'll applaud you... how can you possibly succeed with 1,500 francs at the Beauvais... you fool!)
