Honoré Daumier

Lebreton. He is one of the greatest generals of modern times. He notably surpasses Cavaignac and Lamoricières by forty centimetres. Thus Lebreton provokes the envy of all the drum majors in the army.

The Herald of Murcia

n.d.

Honoré Daumier

How to Become a Great Mathematician. Monsieur Moutonnet, you have made yet another error in your calculations... copy out for me six times the verb: I have made a mistake in my addition! (Mr. Moutonnet, now furious, answers back with some signs, which really have very little in common with algebra)

Esther

1884

Honoré Daumier

Great Exhibition... of Industry and Contemporary Jokes. Enter and judge for yourself! Everything is arranged and ready: The pancake of the courts good for digestion (To the side: and difficult to digest). The Master-thief who catches all!! (save for his shadow). Liquid bitumen! (exactly). Men's shirts for the use of little children. The marvellous indestructible hats (that melt in the sun and dissolve in the rain). Dromedar cream in great demand (by fools). English beer with lots of froth (like in the newspapers). Simpleton's sublime, the classic coal of Saint Pétrain that one can put to the test (at any time).
