Algiers climate

You leave a house

You are cold, you put on your coat

But you're too hot so you take it off

You are cold ! then you walk.

You have a cold! you put your overcoat back on

And to avoid being too hot, you don't

Move more. But you're cold.

Well go home and light a fire

And then open the window

Or don't open it.

Max Jacob. Souvenir of the exhibition. February 1933
