Famous quotes containing the words france and/or switzerland:

    “The best of America drifts to Paris. The American in Paris is the best American. It is more fun for an intelligent person to live in an intelligent country. France has the only two things toward which we drift as we grow older—intelligence and good manners.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    “In a war everybody always knows all about Switzerland, in peace times it is just Switzerland but in war time it is the only country that everybody has confidence in, everybody.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
