Original Text:
Robert Macaire philantrope.
Vois-tu, Bertrand, nous faisons là de la morale en actions….. en actions de 250 francs, bien entendu! – Nous soignerons les actionnaires gratis, tu les purgeras, moi je les saignerai.


Translation:
Robert Macaire, philanthropist.
You see, Bertrand... We are moralists in actions (play on words: actions means stocks). .... In actions (stocks) which naturally will cost 250 francs... We will treat the shareholders free of charge: you will purge them and I will bleed them.
