Excerpt from Short Stories of the Tragedy and Comedy of Life, Vol. 15 Though he worked conscientiously, he did not know how to push, being, he said, too proud to do it. His pride consisted in refusing to bow and scrape before his superiors, after the manner of some of his fellow-workers whom he declined to name. He used to add that his bluntness embarrassed many persons, for, like all the rest, he criticised injustice and the favoritism that was Shown to outsiders, strangers to the department. But his indignant voice never passed the door Of the little box in which he worked. First as a clerk, then as a Frenchman, and finally as a man of order, he adhered from principle to all established forms of the government, having a reli gions reverence for power when it belonged to others than his own chiefs. Every time he found the chance, he would stand where he could see the Emperor pass, that he might have the honor of raising his hat, and he would de part very proud at having bowed to the Chief of the State.
