France is an absolute monarchy, tempered by ballads. [Fr., La France est une monarchie absolue, temperee par des chansons.]

We ended up with Air France because they acquired KLM, and we owned KLM. We still own it because it's still undervalued and it's profitable.

For something to be officially and legally categorized as Champagne, it must come from the Champagne region in France. It's a legally designated region just a little northeast of Paris. Anything we make in America, or anything made in Italy or any other country, is sparkling wine.

we'll end up being the France of the 21st century.

I hate the French because they are all slaves and wear wooden shoes.

The Frenchman, easy, debonair, and brisk, Give him his lass, his fiddle, and his frisk, Is always happy, reign whoever may, And laughs the sense of mis'ry far away.
