French General

Famous quotes containing the words french and/or general:

    ‘Are ye right there, Michael? are ye right?
    Do you think that we’ll be there before the night?
    Ye’ve been so long in startin’,
    That ye couldn’t say for sartin’—
    Still ye might now, Michael, so ye might!’
    —William Percy French (1854–1920)

    That sort of half sigh, which, accompanied by two or three slight nods of the head, is pity’s small change in general society.
