Old friends

Civil War: “Hello, calamity! Where are you doing?”
Cholera: “To Spain.”
Civil War: “Well, you are wasting your time, because there they are warned, and neither you nor I can count on the honest masses.” (Given the poor legibility of the final phrase and my ignorance of the living Spanish language, this probably needs correction.)
(Gedeón, Madrid, 1910)
