My countrymen have commissioned a bust of the Republic. It will be placed on the fountain of my native town.

I thank you for your kind invitation to introduce me to the president of the Republic. Since I have not been out of my atelier for two months, I have no appropriate costume for this circumstance. Please excuse me.

I would prefer to have a more appealing job. If I could still change careers, I would prefer it. This unfortunate art is made for long beards and ugly faces rather than for a relatively well-endowed woman.

Send me one hundred francs on our future deals, otherwise I will disappear in a cataclysm.

There is always something missing that torments me.
