C'était un des moments de tristesse qui se rencontrent dans les familles les plus unies. Un des enfants s'écria joyeusement: \24On sonne! on sonne! \24Morbleu! si c'est M. de Saint-Giraud qui vient me relancer sous prétexte de remerciement, s'écria le maire, je lui dirai son fait, c'est trop fort. C'est au Valenod qu'il en aura l'obligation, et c'est moi qui suis compromis. Que...

  puisse préconiser ce dernier s'il met en péril la cohésion sociale. Force est de reconnaître qu'un devoir coupé de son contexte etrespecté aveuglément peut conduire au pire.

Mais ici, on veillera à nepratiquer qu'un mensonge nécessaire. Il n'est donc pas recommandé de toujours mentir en faisant, par exemple, de tou...

• Commentaire de l'acte I, scène 1 de l'Illusion comique, de Pierre Corneille.
