Quotes
Shit is a melon, shit is a passion fruit.
All revolutions devour their own children.
My reign will be a reign of terror!
Hark to the rare and marvellous sound of the wind in my anus!
We will hang the bourgeois with their own guts.
I find myself authority personified.
The absurd ought to be put to his place: the trash heap.
Shit on the country, shit on the people.
Let us find a way to set ourselves up in this fine profession!
Justice must be heard to be believed.
