"Hey, by the way. My name's Roquefort. Al Roquefort." "Charley de Milo," Charley said. "Glad to know you," the man said. "So while we're traveling companions, you might say ... might as well get to be friendly." "Sure," Charley said tiredly. He looked round the car. A great many people seemed to be heading East. There were no other seats.
At length two rivals appeared one Marcel, a soldier under Montluc, favoured by Franconnette's grandmother, and Pascal, the village blacksmith, favoured by the girl herself. One Sunday afternoon a number of young men and maidens assembled at the foot of Montluc's castle of Estellac on the votive festival of St. Jacques at Roquefort.
Roquefort cheese is the most important production, and sheep are always housed like other cattle in winter. Here is a hint for Welsh farmers! 'Have you any neighbours? I asked. 'Oh, yes! he replied, 'farmers here and there. And we have a postal delivery every day in summer; when winter comes we get letters as we can. I take a newspaper, too. It is not so out of the way a place as it seems.
Go back to your books." "And as de Roquefort says, 'To sit on a cheese and eat whey is the destiny of fools." "See here, young man," said the beard, ignoring his colleague, "treeness is a life process displaying the aspiration of matter toward hierarchy, order, and structure.

Was that what they were thinking when they looked up at him? He shivered again and slipped his shoes off quietly. Immediately, he felt a little better. But not very much.
The disease under which Roquefort suffered seemed to have its seat in the marrow, for his bones by degrees lost all solidity and power of resistance, so that his limbs refused to bear his weight, and he went about the streets crawling like a serpent. Both died in such dreadful torture that they regretted having escaped the scaffold, which would have spared them such prolonged agony.
The aridity, the absolutely waterless condition of the Larzac, has evolved a race of non-drinking animals. The sheep browsing the fragrant herbs of these plateaux have altogether unlearned the habit of drinking, whilst the cows drink very little. The much-esteemed Roquefort cheese is made from ewes' milk, the non-drinking ewes of the Larzac.

But I can't help thinking now: he wouldn't have to get along that way any more. Because this doctor would fix him up." "I guess so," Charley said wearily. "Sure," Roquefort said.
