“l'embaumeur lui avait collé la bouche avec du ciment
et la dernière image qu'il laissa de lui
fut très loin de celle qu'on lui avait connue

et dans sa barque funéraire
on ne mit en vérité que peu de choses
sinon le drame d'une vie qu'il ne trouva pas la force d'achever”

“Lefever describes his financing plan with modesty:
"'Our detailed budget is realistic, but does not take into account the inflation that may occur before September 1983. The one place it could cut or reduce is item 7, the simultaneous interpreter services, if these services could be provided gratis by the U.S. government.'"
"In other words, the only way to make a saving on a U.S.-subsidized project is to take money out of another U.S.-subsidized column.”
