Original Text:
Quand on est possesseur de cent actions dans les bitumes, qu'on a une femme comme Monsieur, on cherche un arbre, on prépare un noeud coulant, et, s'il serre trop, on se raccroche aux branches.

Translation:
When you own one hundred shares of bitumen, when you have a wife like Monsieur, you go and find yourself a tree, prepare a nod and if it is too tight, you hold on to the branches.
