The pleasures of fishing. You are always in such a rush. Good God, we only just got here at noon and it is now only a quarter past five. Just give me a little more time, I am sure I'll end up by catching one. (Les plaisirs de la pêche. Tu es toujours pressée toi!.... que diable nous sommes arrivés à midi et il n'est encore que cinq heures un quart....... donne moi le temps, je suis sur que je finirai par en attraper un!...) (1842)
