I am a vagabond, a thief, a sharper, a man of the knife, anything you please; and I am all that already, monsieur, King of Thunes, for I am a philosopher; ~et omnia in philosophia, omnes in philosopho continentur~,−−all things are contained in philosophy, all men in the philosopher, as you know."
Je suis truand, argotier, franc-bourgeois, petite flambe, tout ce que vous voudrez. Et j’étais tout cela d’avance, monsieur le roi de Thunes, car je suis philosophe ; et omnia in philosophia, omnes in philosopho continentur, comme vous savez. »
