The bastard!
:12:14
Where are those empire builders...
:12:17
those modern-day knights
and intrepid pioneers...
:12:20
that all those adventure novels
had us dreaming of?.
:12:32
Payback!
:12:34
So I feel quite alone here.
:12:36
Moreover, it's been six months...
:12:39
since we've had any visitors
or correspondence.
:12:42
It seems such delays are not unusual
in this part of Africa.
:12:46
But I'm longing to know
what is happening in Paris these days.
:12:50
What are they playing
at the theater and the opera?
:12:53
What is Debussy composing?
What is Peguy up to?
:12:56
And what's new
with our socialist friends?
:12:59
As for the colonies,
tell our friends not to be so sure...
:13:02
about the inferiority
of the black race.
:13:06
Seen up close, this inferiority has less
to do with the shape of the skull...
:13:10
or the composition of the blood...
:13:12
than with the conviction we hold
of our own superiority.
:13:16
At the risk of shocking you...
:13:19
I daresay that in many respects...
:13:21
the natives are not far from meriting
the honored name of''men. ''
:13:26
Thank you, Barthelemy.
:13:38
Dear teacher, I wish you
a happy and peaceful 1 9 1 5.
:13:41
Respectfully yours...
:13:44
Hubert Fresnoy.
:13:50
There's no end to this junk.
:13:58
Garbage!
