Famous quotes containing the words french and/or jews:
“In comparison to the French Revolution, the American Revolution has come to seem a parochial and rather dull event. This, despite the fact that the American Revolution was successful—realizing the purposes of the revolutionaries and establishing a durable political regime—while the French Revolution was a resounding failure, devouring its own children and leading to an imperial despotism, followed by an eventual restoration of the monarchy.”
—Irving Kristol (b. 1920)
“That the Jews assumed a right exclusively to the benefits of God will be a lasting witness against them & the same will it be against Christians.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
