– Maradj nyugton, Mr. Jingles – mondta Delacroix, és az egér megtorpant a bal vállán, mintha csak megértette volna. – Legyél csak ilyen szép nyugodt és csöndes. – A francia dallamos cajun [A XVIII. századi angol-francia háborúk elől Kanadából Louisianába menekült franciákat hívják cajunnek.] kiejtésével a csöndes olyan egzotikus idegenszerűséggel hangzott, hogy söndés.

If I don't, I'll resign and go back to farming.”
„What did you ever farm, besides rocks?”
„It don't matter.”
„I know it doesn't,” I said. „I think I'll put in with you.”
