Famous quotes containing the word france:

    “I shall not bring an automobile with me. These inventions infest France almost as much as Bloomer cycling costumes, but they make a horrid racket, and are particularly objectionable. So are the Bloomers. Nothing more abominable has ever been invented. Perhaps the automobile tricycles may succeed better, but I abjure all these works of the devil.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    “France has lost a battle. But France has not lost the war!”
    —Charles De Gaulle (1890–1970)

    “The good critic is he who relates the adventures of his soul among masterpieces.”
    —Anatole France (1844–1924)
