Grand Louvre

Famous quotes containing the words grand and/or louvre:

    I always consider the settlement of America with reverence and wonder, as the opening of a grand scene and design in providence, for the illumination of the ignorant and the emancipation of the slavish part of mankind all over the earth.
    John Adams (1735–1826)

    He is what he hears and sees and if,
    Without pathos, he feels what he hears
    And sees, being nothing otherwise, he has not
    To go to the Louvre to behold himself.
