YOU MUST ADMIT THAT IT IS A BIT BORING, MONSIEUR LOUSTALOT, TO STAND LIKE THIS ALL DAY WITH YOUR ARMS UP LIKE THAT HOLDING THE SIGNAL-FLAG?... - YOU ARE TELLING ME!.. AND I'M SO STUFFED UP WITH A COLD! I NEEDED TO BLOW MY NOSE FOR THE PAST 45 MINUTES..... BUT I DON'T DARE .... IT MIGHT ENDANGER THE SAFETY OF THE TRAIN.... I'LL ASK THE NEXT PASSENGER WHO HAPPENS TO PASS BY TO DO ME THIS FAVOUR.
Honoré Daumier
You must admit that it is a bit boring, Monsieur Loustalot, to stand like this all day with your arms up like that holding the signal-flag?... - You are telling me!.. and I'm so stuffed up with a cold! I needed to blow my nose for the past 45 minutes..... but I don't dare .... it might endanger the safety of the train.... I'll ask the next passenger who happens to pass by to do me this favour.
