- "The French soldiers are grand. They are grand. There is no other word to express it".
Arthur Conan Doyle
- "Their business is war, and they do their business".
R. Kipling
- "The Free French had been of inestimable value in the campaign."
Dwight D. Eisenhower
- "The value of French Resistance was equal to 10 to 15 divisions at the time of the landings".
Dwight D. Eisenhower
-"The French held 7 german divisions in Lille during 3 days and thus saved at least 100,000 more troops in Dunkerk. England wouldn't have been able to carry on the war without this splendid contribution of the French 1st Army".
Winston Churchill
- "Although Churchill had promised the French that the British would cover their escape, on the ground it was the French who held the line while the last remaining British were evacuated. Despite concentrated artillery fire and Luftwaffe strafing and bombs, the French stood their ground."
Walter Lord
- "Dunkirk brings me the evidence that the French soldier is one of the best in the world. The French Army probably saved Great-Britain from the defeat, allowing their professional army to reach the English Coasts".
General Georg Von Kuchler
- "Without Dunkirk, the D-Day couldn't have been possible."
Prince Charles of England
- "The lengthened defense of the French garrison played a major role in the re-establishment of the British troops in Egypt.
We can say, without exaggerating, that Bir Hakeim greatly contributed to El-Alamein defensive success."
Ian Stanley Ord Playfair
- "France was built with the sword".
Charles De Gaulle
- "The French woman embodies the absolute chic".
Stella Mc Cartney
- "Why are French women so sexy? Ever since 1066, we've been enthralled by the innate superiority of the French female".
Helena Frith Powell
- "Englishwomen love the dresses from Paris. Unfortunatly they wear them with a strong english accent".
Hector Hugh Munro, alias Saki
- "It's true that the Frenchmen have a certain obsession with sex".
Anita Loos
- "I find [the French] a most amiable nation to live with".
Benjamin Franklin
- "The problem with the French is that they have no word for 'entrepreneur' ".
George W. Bush
- "From Nice to Boulogne I was deeply struck with the magnificent order and method and decency and prosperity of France".
Henri James
- "England needs the world, the world needs France".
Rivaroli
- "When Paris sneezes, Europe catches cold".
Metternich
- "America is my country and Paris is my hometown".
Gertrude Stein
-"There have been 53 major wars in Europe
France had been a belligerent in 49 of them; UK 43.
In 185 battles that France had fought over the past 800 years, their armies had won 132 times, lost 43 times and drawn only 10.
Giving the French military the best record of any country in Europe".
BBC History
- "...the most militarily successful nation : the French..."
B.H. Liddell Hart
- "You French fight for money, while we British fight for honour."
British officer to the French Corsair Robert Surcouf
- "A man fights for what he lacks the most".
Robert Surcouf to the British Officer
-"I have a lot of good moments in England, but the one I prefer is when I kicked the hooligan."
Eric Cantona
- "During the century and a half after the Conquest, there is no English history. The French Kings of England rose to an eminence which was the wonder of all nations".
Thomas Babington Macauley
- "The small groups of Vikings that settled there adopted the language, religion and culture of the French majority. After a generation or two, the Normans were indistinguishable from the French".
Encyclopaedia Britannica
- "Everything that is courteous, honorable and elegant in the English culture comes from the French invasion".
Walter Scott
- "England : A French colony that turned upside down..."
Georges Clemenceau

- "England has established freedom for the English only whereas the declaration of Human Rights was "promulgated" by the French for all men".
Theodore Zeldin
-"The French are par excellence the culture nation of Europe."
Hermann Keyserling
