“First they came for the communists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a communist.

Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist.

That's it. They never came for me, like they never did with many others. That's why you don't speak out, because you'll get what was taken from the others. Politics don't matter as long as I come out on top."

– Votre maison est hantée, me dites-vous ? demande l'exorciste.
– Oui ! Par exemple, si je quitte une pièce sans éteindre la lumière, une voix sépulcrale dans les murs résonne : « Hé c'est pas Versailles ici ! ». Ou alors si je dis « Je suis rentrée ! », j'entends « Enchanté Rentrée, je suis papa. ». Je n'en peux plus…

L'exorciste reste quelques instants silencieux.

– Écoutez. Hum… Je ne peux rien pour vous.
– Mais…
– Je ne traite pas les phénomènes papanormaux. Désolé.
