"Eh! bien, comment cela va-t-il aujourd'hui? ["Hey! well, how are things today?"]

Death, appearing as a doctor with a top hat and cane, is standing before a stout man sitting in a chair. The man is holding a glass, and on the table next to him are the remnants of overindulgence. Cartoon by French artist Joseph Guillaume Bourdet (1799-1869), 183-. (Source: Courtesy of the U.S. National Library of Medicine, Bethesda, Maryland. NLM Unique ID: 101393102. Public domain.)
