Famous quotes containing the word germans:

    “I fancy we are almost the only nation in the world who seem to think that composition comes by nature. The French attend to their own language, the Germans study theirs; but Englishmen do not seem to think it is worth their while.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “Biography, too, is liable to the same objection; it should be autobiography. Let us not, as the Germans advise, endeavor to go abroad and vex our bowels that we may be somebody else to explain him. If I am not I, who will be?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I know what Germans are. They are a funny people. They are always choosing someone to lead them in a direction which they do not want to go.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
