French Blue

Famous quotes containing the words french and/or blue:

    “The French are certainly misunderstood:Mbut whether the fault is theirs, in not sufficiently explaining themselves; or speaking with that exact limitation and precision which one would expect ... or whether the fault may not be altogether on our side ... I shall not decide.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    “Dear Friend,
    the canebrakes
    nestled in the riverbank’s lap,
    their clusters broken
    from the weight of blue bees,
    have in time
    become stumps.”
    —Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
