Excerpt from La Peste Rouge, ou les Saturnales Révolutionnaires
Je suis parfaitement de cet avis; mais, comme nous ne marcherons dans cette voie ue quand nous nous serons débarrassés des envieux des ambitieux, des mécontents, enfin de tous ces misérables qui ne reculent devant aucun moyen pour obtenir l'objet de leur convoitise, je dis et je répète que le progrès tel qu'on nous le fait suba'r depuis soixante ans, renferme en soi la cause de la gangrène mo rale qui ronge la société.
Autrefois, chacun se contentait tranquillement de ce qu'il possédait ou gagnait, et vivait à sa mode sans se préoccuper du voisin.
