Comment:
People who is proud will be unliked. The Marquis only think about himself like he is the most important person and the others are just rats or dogs or the other animal. He does not treat the poor people as a human because he just throw out the money to the poor one after the child was 'killed by his carriage'. All their behaviours are the main reason that cause the peoples who hate them very much to take revenge on them. Then, 'The French Revolution' continues for three years after the attack on the Bastille.
