Famous quotes containing the words french, popular and/or party:

    The Russians imitate French ways, but always at a distance of fifty years.
    Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

    For the people in government, rather than the people who pester it, Washington is an early-rising, hard-working city. It is a popular delusion that the government wastes vast amounts of money through inefficiency and sloth. Enormous effort and elaborate planning are required to waste this much money.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    A peace is of the nature of a conquest,
    For then both parties nobly are subdued,
    And neither party loser.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
