There is above all to believe that we have power”. “There is the power anyway to get a pizza, ice cream and other things …”he still retorted his accomplice, Maxime Gasteuil. Privileges he recognizes but which do not interest him more than that: “Yes and then to have a place in a restorate when it is complete.

But sometimes I am upset to always invite people and that they do not always invite me”he annoyed himself.
