four he may be of use.
Speaker:
00:02:46
Paris begins with the lounger and
Speaker:
00:02:49
ends with a street Arab, two beings of
Speaker:
00:02:52
which no other city is capable, the
Speaker:
00:02:55
passive acceptance which contents itself with
Speaker:
00:02:57
gazing and the inexhaustible initiative.
Speaker:
00:03:00
Prudhomme and Fulio Paris
Speaker:
00:03:03
alone has this in its natural history.
Speaker:
00:03:06
The whole of the monarchy is contained in the lounger,
Speaker:
00:03:09
the whole of the anarchy in the gamin.
Speaker:
00:03:12
The pale child of the parisian faubourgs lives
Speaker:
00:03:15
and develops, makes connections,
Speaker:
00:03:17
grows supple in suffering, in the presence
Speaker:
00:03:20
of social realities and of human things.
Speaker:
00:03:23
A thoughtful witness. He thinks
Speaker:
00:03:26
himself heedless and he is not. He
Speaker:
00:03:29
looks and is on the verge of laughter. He is on
Speaker:
00:03:32
the verge of something else also. Whoever you may
Speaker:
00:03:35
be, if your name is prejudice, abuse, ignorance, oppression,
Speaker:
00:03:38
iniquity, despotism, injustice, fanaticism,
Speaker:
00:03:41
tyranny, beware of the gaping gamin.
Speaker:
00:03:44
The little fellow will grow up. Of what
Speaker:
00:03:46
clay is he made of the first mud that
Speaker:
00:03:49
comes to a handful of dirt, a
Speaker:
00:03:52
breath and behold, Adam,
Speaker:
00:03:55
it suffices for a God to pass. Bye.
Speaker:
00:03:58
A God has always passed over the street. Arab
Speaker:
00:04:01
fortune labors as this tiny being.
Speaker:
00:04:04
By the word fortune, we mean chance to some
Speaker:
00:04:07
extent that pygmy needed out of
Speaker:
00:04:09
common, ignorant,
Speaker:
00:04:12
unlettered, giddy, vulgar, low

00:04:15
will that become an ionian or boeotian.
Speaker:
00:04:19
Wait, caritrota,
Speaker:
00:04:22
the spirit of Paris, that demon which
Speaker:
00:04:25
creates the children of chance and the men of destiny.
