Ton French

Famous quotes containing the words ton and/or french:

    Hearing your words, and not a word among them
    Tuned to my liking, on a salty day
    When inland woods were pushed by winds, that flung them
    Hissing to leeward like a ton of spray,

    The French courage proceeds from vanity—the German from phlegm—the Turkish from fanaticism & opium—the Spanish from pride—the English from coolness—the Dutch from obstinacy—the Russian from insensibility—but the Italian from anger.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
