Le Nègre selon National Geographic
People are unhappy when they get something too easily. You have to sweat--that's the only moral they know.
Je me souviens de mon effroi devant un premier baiser. Et si l'autre me mangeait la langue? C'est d'abord mon meilleur morceau de viande que je lui confie aveuglément.
