All mortals tend to turn into the thing they are pretending to be."

['Alors, tout a basculé']"
"Man may feel like a feeble and powerless pawn, at some moment in his life. This apprehension can come out of the blue, in the middle of the day, at the center of a public place, like a cerebral attack.

['Check and mate']"
