Voyons madame, un peu de courage..., 1858. 'Voyons madame, un peu de courage...Une reine ne doit pas trembler comme ça...rappelez-vous donc que vous êtes une reine et que vous allez dire des vers du grand Corneille! - La tragédie, ça me révolutionne...je regrette bien de ne pas m'en être tenue á jouer l´opérette...Faites une annonce au public et réclamez son indulgence!...'. Theatre manager: 'Come, madam, a little courage...A queen should not tremble like that...remember that you are a queen and that you are going to recite verses of the great Corneille!' Actress: 'Tragedy unsettles me...I should have stuck to performing operetta...Make an announcement to the public and ask for their indulgence!...'. From Les Comédiens de Société, no. 16.
