It is always a vulgar and often an unhealthy pastime, and it is a vice which does not go alone; the man who gambles will find himself capable of any evil. - Jules Verne (A Floating City Quotes)

It is always a vulgar and often an unhealthy pastime, and it is a vice which does not go alone; the man who gambles will find himself capable of any evil.[C’est un plaisir toujours grossier, souvent malsain. L’homme atteint de la maladie du jeu n’a pas que ce mal; il n’est guère possible que d’autres ne lui fassent pas cortège. C’est un vice qui ne va jamais seul. ]
