Churchill on France- "Never in the field of human conflict have so many cheese-eating surrender monkeys been owed so little by so many."
- " Mr. DeGaulle, you are to the war what piles are to Lester Piggott."
- "At least we lasted longer than they did."
- "You know, I'd rather have my bottom impaled on a giant cactus than to have to speak to that jumped-up Frenchman. As far as I'm concerned, the only thing the French should be allowed to host is an invasion." -Overheard at the first, and last, party thrown by DeGaulle for Englishmen.
- "All the French offer the world is wine, whiny people, and smelly cheese."
- "Going to war without France is like going hunting without your accordion. All you do is leave behind a lot of noisy baggage."
- "Some chicken! No really, they're all terrible cowards."
- "The French they are a funny race; they fight with their feet, and fuck with their face!"
- "Damned French! They're a bunch of cheese-eating surrender monkeys, and if it wasn't the for the fact....oh, bloody hell, is this thing on?"
- "The French, I find, are like grown children. They want independence, but they still want you to bail their arses out of trouble every time there's a war on."
- "Are we not supposed to go to war with the french?"
- "The french are like Americans...too many of them"
