Paris

Famous quotes containing the word paris:

“Oh, London is a man’s town, there’s power in the air;
And Paris is a woman’s town, with flowers in her hair;
And it’s sweet to dream in Venice, and it’s great to study Rome;
But when it comes to living, there is no place like home.”
—Henry Van Dyke (1852–1933)

“Imagination has seized power.
[L’imagination prend le pouvoir.]”
—Graffito. Paris ‘68, ch. 2, Marc Rohan (1988)

“Along the Paris streets, the death-carts rumble, hollow and harsh. Six tumbrils carry the day’s wine to La Guillotine.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
