Comme Ça

C’est un passage de “Arsène Guillot “, bizarrement j'ai compris ce que ça veut dire et je pense c’est très vrai !!

“Pourquoi, madame, aime-t-on toujours les mauvais sujets ? Depuis l’infant prodigue jusqu'à votre chien Diamant, qui mord tout le monde et qui est la plus méchante bête que je connaisse, on inspire d’autant plus d’intérêt qu’on en mérite moins. – Vanité ! Pure vanité, madame, que ce sentimental-là! Plaisir de la difficulté vaincue ! Le père de l’enfant prodigue a vaincu le diable et lui a retiré sa proie ; vous avez triomphé du mauvais naturel de Diamant à force de gimblettes.”

N'hésitez pas à me corriger si je me trompe :)

Sorry I forgot to translate the first line...it wasn’t me who said that...it’s a passage from a short story...I guess it’s too early for me to start “etfalsaf” en Français :P

TRANSLATION:

This is a passage from “Arsène Guillot “, strangely I understood what is it about and I think it’s so true

The point to my best knowledge is: "why do we always fall for bad people?! Whither it’s your wicked dog “Diamant” who bites everybody or it’s the parent who favor the troublesome kid to the other children...I know it for a fact that the less a person deserves the more attention he attracts - why?! -vanity! Pure vanity!...the pleasure one gets from overcoming difficulties...it is stupid when a parent thinks that he can defeat the devil and take away his prey or that you can change your dog’s evil nature just by giving him some candy"

Please don't hesitate to correct me if am wrong :)
