In fact you are like us–you are "us." Your thoughts are ours. You behave as we behave, as we would behave. You think of yourself–others think of you–as a Negro? Utterly mistaken! You merely look like one. As for everything else, you think as a European. And so it is natural that you love as a European. Since European men love only European women, you can hardly marry anyone but a woman of the country where you have always lived, a woman of our good old France, your real and only country.
