“What about me?鈥� said Grantaire. 鈥業鈥檓 here.鈥�
鈥榊辞耻?鈥�
鈥榊es, me.鈥�
鈥榊ou? Rally Republicans! You? In defence of principles, fire up hearts that have grown cold!鈥�
鈥榃hy not?鈥�
鈥楢re you capable of being good for something?鈥�
鈥業 have the vague ambition to be,鈥� said Grantaire.
鈥榊ou don鈥檛 believe in anything.鈥�
鈥業 believe in you.鈥�
鈥楪rantaire, will you do me a favour?鈥�
鈥楢nything. Polish your boots.鈥�
鈥榃ell, don鈥檛 meddle in our affairs. Go and sleep off the effects of your absinthe.鈥�
鈥榊ou鈥檙e heartless, Enjolras.鈥�
鈥楢s if you鈥檇 be the man to send to the Maine gate! As if you were capable of it!鈥�
鈥業鈥檓 capable of going down Rue des Gr猫s, crossing Place St-Michel, heading off along Rue Monsieur-le-Prince, taking Rue de Vaugirard, passing the Carmelite convent, turning into Rue d鈥橝ssas, proceeding to Rue du Cherche-Midi, leaving the Military Court behind me, wending my way along Rue des Vieilles-Tuileries, striding across the boulevard, following Chauss茅e du Maine, walking through the toll-gate and going into Richefeu鈥檚. I鈥檓 capable of that. My shoes are capable of that.鈥�
鈥楧o you know them at all, those comrades who meet at Richefeu鈥檚?'
鈥楴ot very well. But we鈥檙e on friendly terms.鈥�
鈥榃hat will you say to them?鈥�
鈥業鈥檒l talk to them about Robespierre, of course! And about Danton. About principles.鈥�
鈥榊辞耻?鈥�
鈥榊es, me. But I鈥檓 not being given the credit I deserve. When I put my mind to it, I鈥檓 terrific. I鈥檝e read Prudhomme, I鈥檓 familiar with the Social Contract, I know by heart my constitution of the year II. 鈥淭he liberty of the citizen ends where the liberty of another citizen begins.鈥� Do you take me for a brute beast? I have in my drawer an old promissory note from the time of the Revolution. The rights of man, the sovereignty of the people, for God鈥檚 sake! I鈥檓 even a bit of an H茅bertist. I can keep coming out with some wonderful things, watch in hand, for a whole six hours by the clock.鈥�
鈥楤e serious,鈥� said Enjolras.
鈥業 mean it,鈥� replied Grantaire.

Enjolras thought for a few moments, and with the gesture of a man who had come to a decision, 鈥楪rantaire,鈥� he said gravely, 鈥業 agree to try you out. You鈥檒l go to the Maine toll-gate.鈥�

Grantaire lived in furnished lodgings very close to Caf茅 Musain. He went out, and came back five minutes later. He had gone home to put on a Robespierre-style waistcoat.
鈥楻ed,鈥� he said as he came in, gazing intently at Enjolras. Then, with an energetic pat of his hand, he pressed the two scarlet lapels of the waistcoat to his chest.
And stepping close to Enjolras he said in his ear, 鈥楧on鈥檛 worry.鈥�
He resolutely jammed on his hat, and off he went.”

“I hate to hear you talk about all women as if they were fine ladies instead of rational creatures. None of us want to be in calm waters all our lives.”
― Jane Austen, Persuasion

“If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more.”
― Jane Austen, Emma

“I love you. I love you. I love you. I'll write it in waves. In skies. In my heart. You'll never see, but you will know. I'll be all the poets, I'll kill them all and take each one's place in turn, and every time love's written in all the strands it will be to you.”
― Amal El-Mohtar, This Is How You Lose the Time War
