Adopt an Ami de
l'ABC
They're cute, they're
cuddly, and you can take one home with you today!
Every last Ami de l'ABC is the intellectual
property of Victor Hugo. These pictures, however, are the
intellectual property of moi. Les Amis object strongly to plagarism,
so if you try to pass them off as your own, rest assured they
will rise
against you. All descriptive quotations are taken from
Les Miserables, by Victor Hugo.
Step 1: Pick an Ami from the images below.
Enjolras
"He was officiating and militant, from the immediate point
of view, a soldier of democracy; above the movement of the time, a
priest of the ideal."
I want to adopt
Enjy!
Combeferre
"His desire was to instill into all minds the broad
principles of general ideas; he said 'Revolution, but civilisation;'
and about the steep mountain he spread the vast blue horizon."
I want to adopt
Combeferre!
Jean Prouvaire
"He spoke gently, bent his head, cast down his eyes,
smiled with embarrasment, dressed badly, had an awkward air, blushed
at nothing, was very timid, still intrepid."
I want to adopt
Jehan!
Feuilly
"Feuilly was a generous heart. He had an immense embrace.
This orphan had adopted the people."
I want to adopt
Feuilly!
Courfeyrac
"Courfeyrac had in fact that youthful animation which we
might call the diabolic beauty of mind."
I want to adopt
Courfeyrac!
Bahorel
"Bahorel was a creature of good humor and bad company...
with fool-hardy waistcoats and scarlet opinions"
I want to adopt
Bahorel!
Lesgle/Bossuet
"Bossuet was a cheery fellow who was unlucky. His
specialty was to succed at nothing. On the other hand, he laughed at
everything."
I want to adopt
Bossuet!
Joly
"All these incoherences, young, notional, sickly, joyous,
got along very well together, and the result was an eccentric and
agreeable person whom his comrades, prodigal of consonants, called
Jolllly."
I want to adopt
Joly!
Grantaire
"Grantaire was a man who took good care not to belive
anything... His mind dispensed with belief, yet his heart could not
dispense with friendship."
I want to adopt
Grantaire!
