Personnage le plus cit\u00e9, aim\u00e9, voire ador\u00e9, en m\u00eame temps que d\u00e9test\u00e9. C\u2019est la star de l\u2019Histoire en citations<\/em>. On ne se lasse pas de son \u00e9loquence face aux soldats, de sa mauvaise foi contre le pape, de sa misogynie proverbiale. Et son auto portrait r\u00e9serve quelques surprises. Exemple\u00a0: \u201c\u00a0Quand j\u2019ai besoin de quelqu\u2019un, je n\u2019y regarde pas de si pr\u00e8s, je le baiserais au cul.\u00a0\u201d<\/p>\n
