French Foreign Ministry

Famous quotes containing the words french, foreign and/or ministry:

    ‘Are ye right there, Michael? are ye right?

    Still ye might now, Michael, so ye might!’

    the eave-drops fall
    Heard only in the trances of the blast,
    Or if the secret ministry of frost
    Shall hang them up in silent icicles,
    Quietly shining to the quiet Moon.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
