“At lightning speed, Eva ran toward him as he set down the puppy— a truffle dog by the look of it, about four months old, white with large black spots— and within seconds, she was rolling around as it licked her cheeks. “J’adore your Lagotto Romagnolo,” she informed him.
“And evidently, Chouchou adores you.”
Chouchou. My little cabbage. The classic French term of affection seemed perfect for this roly-poly creature.”

“After the mother tongue follows French, for it is the most widely spoken and indispensable language of Europe; according to our present-day standards it is the most cultivated; fine style and the expressions of taste have been for the most part formed in this language and translated from it into others; it is the simplest and most uniform of languages from which to obtain a foretaste of philosophical grammar; it is the most suitable for the purposes of narrative, logic and reasoning. It must therefore, by the standards of our modern world, follow immediately after the mother tongue and precede every other, even Latin. I would like even the scholar to know French better than Latin!”
