We are becoming like cats, slyly parasitic, enjoying an indifferent domesticity. Nice and smug in "the social," our historic passions have withdrawn into the glow of an artificial coziness, and our half-closed eyes now seek little other than the peaceful parade of television pictures.
Nous devenons comme les chats, d'un parasitisme narquois d'une domesticite indifferente. Bien au chaud dans le social, nos passions historiques se sont repliees dans la lueur d'une intimite artificielle et nos yeux mi-clos ne guettent plus que le defile pacifique des images televisuelles.
