Text Quotes
In New York I pretty much live in diners - I order French Fries, Diet Coke floats and lots of coffee.  (French Quotes) Machismo requires Latin blood. I’d say I never experienced machismo up close until I worked in a French office; the typical Wall Street gunner has the soul of a coffee filter in comparison.  (French Quotes) I don’t know why you use a fancy French word like detente when there’s a good English phrase for it - cold war.  (French Quotes) I want to go to college to study journalism. I want to speak French fluently, to travel. My mom was a journalist and it’s in my blood.  (French Quotes) How can people say they don’t eat eggplant when God loves the color and the French love the name? I don’t under’stand.  (French Quotes) My dream is not Hollywood, but to perform my act in English to 30 people in a Soho comedy club, to show New Yorkers what they look like from the French point of view.  (French Quotes) Even if I’m in Japan and I don’t speak Japanese and the woman facing me doesn’t speak French but she’s dressed in Rykiel, and she recognizes me, then we have a common language right away.  (French Quotes) The future science of government should be called ‘la cybernétique’ (1843) Coining the French word to mean ‘the art of governing,’ from the Greek (Kybernetes = navigator or steersman), subsequently adopted as cybernetics by Norbert Weiner for the field of control and communication theory.  (French Quotes) From the outset, when [Ho Chi Minh] became a member of the French Communist Party in 1920, he was an independent thinker who adjusted Marxist-Leninist ideas and tactics to what he perceived to be the concrete situation in Indochina.  (French Quotes) I go to movies expecting to have a whole experience. If I want a movie that doesn’t end, I’ll go to a French movie. That’s a betrayal of trust to me. A movie has to be complete within itself; it can’t just build off the first one or play variations.  (French Quotes) I remember when I was in the prisoner camp, I was a French prisoner. And I saw the first photograph from the concentration camps, and we discussed it with other prisoners. And our feeling was we did not only lose the war, we lost also our honor.  (French Quotes) The only consistent hobby I’ve had is studying Spanish and French because of some delusion of grandeur to work around the world. I love sports but usually I’m looking for the next job.  (French Quotes) If history is written by the victors, conspiracy theory is typically written by the losers, and there were few greater losers in the revolution than the French church and especially the Jesuits.  (French Quotes) I went to L’Academie de Cuisine in Gaithersburg, Maryland, and I think French cooking is the basis for a lot of classical cuisine, a foundation of a lot of other cuisines. That said, it’s not the only way to approach a cooking career.  (French Quotes) In Paris and later in Marseille, I was surrounded by some of the best food in the world, and I had an enthusiastic audience in my husband, so it seemed only logical that I should learn how to cook ‘la cuisine bourgeoise’ - good, traditional French home cooking.  (French Quotes) When a couch potato is sliced up and then deep fried that is couch french fries  (French Quotes) Mayonnaise, like hollandaise, was invented by the French to cover up the flavor of spoiled flesh, stale vegetables, rotten fish. Beware the sauce! Where food comes beslobbered with an elegant slime you may well suspect the integrity of the basic ingredients.  (French Quotes) You are not thinking hard enough if you are sleeping well. And you would have to be unhinged to take on a subject like the French Revolution, or Rembrandt, and not feel some trepidation. There is always the possibility that you will crash and burn, and the whole thing will be a horrible, vulgar, self-indulgent mess.  (French Quotes) I’ve always loved writing, and my heritage has been interesting, growing up in a bi-cultural family. My mother being Vietnamese and my father being French, it’s like an East-West meeting in my house.  (French Quotes) The bands you like and know that are French are always outsiders in the French music industry - Daft Punk, Air.  (French Quotes) Well, Kessa, I am glad to see that you’re taking your body seriously. I shudder when I see the girls leaving class and heading for the nearest hamburger, coke, and French fry station.The thought of them pouring all those dead calories into themselves makes me want to cry. You’d think after a rigorous dance class they’d have more respect for their bodies.  (French Quotes) I have never had so much fun as in Montreal. I taught the kids French, I baby-sat, I went to school, I was a receptionist at a hairdresser’s, I danced and drank all night. I found that the more you do, the more you have time to do... it’s weird, non?  (French Quotes) The Cul-de-Sac ( French for dead end ) ... is a situation where you work and work and work and nothing much changes  (French Quotes) France turned a deaf ear to the demands, but Ho had succeeded in attracting great publicity in progressive French circles to the situation in Indochina.  (French Quotes) There is a phrase in French, which means ‘to miss.’ To pass by. To not be able to stop. You love someone and someone loves you, but it just can’t work for different reasons.  (French Quotes) When I first started working, I was very aware of the fact that I’d been to university and studied Russian and French and not acting. So when I started working, I’d started working quite young, I felt like it was important to treat myself kind of like an apprentice and do as many different types of things as I could.  (French Quotes) I’m always fetishizing the French woman and French taste and style. My assistant will make fun of me because every time we’re picking the direction of a collection, I say the same thing: ‘I want it to be really French.’  (French Quotes) What do you think has been the effect of the French revolution? It is too early to tell.  (French Quotes) I remember walking the dog one day, I saw a car full of teenage girls, and one of them rolled down the window and yelled, ‘Marc Jacobs!’ in a French accent.  (French Quotes) Just read The Virtue of Minding Your Own Business. Oh my, what currents run deep! Beautifully seen, beautifully told. Praise praise praise . . . Pardon my French, but you are one darn major American writer!---Richard Bach, author of Jonathan Livingston Seagull and Illusions, on Sandcastle and Other Stories  (French Quotes)
