French Crusaders

Famous quotes containing the words french and/or crusaders:

    Salad is roughage and a French idea.
    —U.S. grandmother. As quoted in “Once a Tramp, Always ...,” by M.F.K. Fisher (1969)

    Living more lives than one, knowing people of all classes, all shades of opinion, monarchists, republicans, socialists, anarchists, has had a salutary effect on my mind. If every year of my life, every month of the year, I had lived with reformers and crusaders I should be, by this time, a fanatic. As it is I have had such varied things to do, I have had so many different contacts that I am not even very much of a crank.
    Rheta Childe Dorr (1866–1948)
