Text Quotes
I’d like to be reincarnated as a French tart. They’re so beautiful and delicate - they’re like my opposite. I’m more of a comfort food: goat cheese with garlic. (French Quotes)
I just dreamed about living in Paris and being French. I always loved the visual arts, film and theatre, and I hoped to be involved in creating beautiful products and images. (French Quotes)
I feel French is very close to Urdu. Both languages are beautiful. Sadly, their beauty is lost in translation. (French Quotes)
When I had photographed Prince William’s mother, I brought along a CD of Dalida, a French singer, that we played on set all day to relax everyone. I decided to do the same thing for Catherine and William. The contrast of the contemporary informal music playing in the beautiful rooms with so much history caused a lot of laughter. (French Quotes)
As for the French language, it’s probably one of the most beautiful in the world. I speak a little bit and I can follow conversations, but I think it will take time to improve myself. (French Quotes)
The difference between the Parthenon and the World Trade Center, between a French wine glass and a German beer mug, between Bach and John Philip Sousa, between Sophocles and Shakespeare, between a bicycle and a horse, though explicable by historical moment, necessity, and destiny, is before all a difference of imagination. (French Quotes)
I can’t think of this country without Quebec. Je parle francais. And when I think about being a Canadian, speaking French is part of it. (French Quotes)
The French are very bizarre. There is this collective depiction: ‘We’re in decline, we’re being assailed, we must protect ourselves.’ (French Quotes)
Born in England during the First World War, of Belgian parents with partly German roots, I grew up in the cosmopolitan city of Antwerp, where I had the benefit of a classical education taught in the two national languages of Belgium: French and Dutch. (French Quotes)
In the 20th century, the French managed to get a death on the myth that they produce the world’s best food. The hype has been carefully orchestrated, and despite the fact that the most popular food in the last quarter has undoubtedly been Italian, the French have managed to maintain that mental grip. (French Quotes)
Everyone tells me I have a funny accent. It’s because I copy people. I learned English at school but have best friends who are French, Australian, English and American; a very weird mix. (French Quotes)
I’m sure that a French production of this [Maigret series] would be different. For better or worse, who’s to say, but probably not very good for 8 o’clock on ITV. (French Quotes)
I’m a big fan of Henri Cartier-Bresson, the French photographer who had that whole decisive moment approach to taking pictures, of having multiple elements line up within the frame. (French Quotes)
My biggest challenge is cooking traditional French dishes, which usually require very specific techniques and methods. That’s just not my style... I cook from the soul. (French Quotes)
The biggest misconception may be about my birth country, Lithuania, due to the lack of knowledge about it, but also probably because some strong lobbies work against European construction. There is a huge difference between what I hear from the French media, for example, and what I know about this country and its people. (French Quotes)
We’re all nothing but unified arrangements of atoms and particles, drifting around, enjoying consciousness every now and then for a second or so before splitting up to become bits and pieces of trees and stars and french fries. (French Quotes)
When you look at me you don’t immediately imagine a very very glamorous icon, so it’s only in the theater that I get to do these experiments. I’ve been an actor about 51 years now. I’ve played everything from an 8-year-old black boy to a 72-year-old French matriarch, and they hardly hire you to do that on TV. (French Quotes)
There was no United States before slavery. I am sure somebody can make some sort of argument about modern French identity and slavery and North Africa, but there simply is no American history before black people. (French Quotes)
Nobody in France would ever say ‘He’s a Jewish novelist’ or ‘She’s a black novelist,’ even though people do write about those subjects. It would look absurd to a French person to go into a bookstore and see a ‘Gay Studies’ section. (French Quotes)
Eastern Muslim countries, such as Indonesia and Malaysia, are relative success stories, as they are not afflicted by the Arab heritage of retreat and humiliation at the hands of the French, Spanish, British, Turks, and Persians. (French Quotes)
Blade Runner is one of my favorite films. But, so many thing influenced me that aren’t science fiction because they were just good drama. I grew up watching a lot of French cinema. I was in love with The English Patient, and movies that are very romantic in nature and have a positive message. That’s a large part of my fingerprint. (French Quotes)
Blood may be thicker than water, but it’s certainly not as thick as ketchup. Nor does it go as well with French fries. (French Quotes)
She turned her painted blue eyes toward the assistant and said something in French before she left (French Quotes)
French women have been made beautiful by the French people - they’re very aware of their bodies, the way they move and speak, they’re very confident of their sexuality. French society’s made them like that. (French Quotes)
I read everything. I’ll read a John Grisham novel, I’ll sit and read a whole book of poems by Maya Angelou, or I’ll just read some Mary Oliver - this is a book that was given to me for Christmas. No particular genre. And I read in French, and I read in German, and I read in English. I love to see how other people use language. (French Quotes)
It’s Fendi. French, Fendi, both start with an F... I fell in love with it. Smells like grown-man cologne. (French Quotes)
Maybe the French will get a manned craft into space if they can get a rocket strong enough to lift a bottle of wine. (French Quotes)
It’s funny because I remember when I came to the U.S. with ‘Swimming Pool,’ the movie did well, and it was great box office for a French movie, but I remember I was a bit upset because all people talked to me about was the nudity. (French Quotes)
The women of the French Resistance astounded me. Isabelle and Vianne [from The Nightingale] are my homage to those brave and forgotten women. (French Quotes)
I come from Yorkshire in England where we like to eat chip sandwiches - white bread, butter, tomato ketchup and big fat french fries cooked in beef dripping. (French Quotes)
