"De guiche.
"Portez-les-lui."

Cyrano, tenté et un peu charmé.
"Vraiment…"

De guiche.
"Il est des plus experts.
Il vous corrigera seulement quelques vers…"

Cyrano, dont le visage s’est immédiatement rembruni.
"Impossible, Monsieur ; mon sang se coagule
En pensant qu’on y peut changer une virgule."

De guiche.
"Mais quand un vers lui plaît, en revanche, mon cher,
Il le paye très cher."

Cyrano.
"Il le paye moins cher
Que moi, lorsque j’ai fait un vers, et que je l’aime,
Je me le paye, en me le chantant à moi-même !"

De guiche.
"Vous êtes fier."

Cyrano.
"Vraiment, vous l’avez remarqué ?

Additional quotes by Edmond Rostand

What say you? It is useless? Ay, I know
But who fights ever hoping for success?
I fought for lost cause, and for fruitless quest!
You there, who are you! — You are thousands! Ah!
I know you now, old enemies of mine!
Falsehood!
Have at you! Ha! and Compromise!
Prejudice, Treachery! … Surrender, I?
Parley? No, never! You too, Folly, — you?
I know that you will lay me low at last;
Let be! Yet I fall fighting, fighting still!
