- Bertrand, I adore industry....

- If you like we'll set up a bank!... but a real bank. With a capital of hundreds of millions, with thousands of millions of shares. We'll smash the Bank of France, we'll sink the bankers, the charlatans... we'll beat everyone!
- Yes, but what about the police?
- Don't be silly, Bertrand. Whoever heard of a millionaire being arrested?
