Quote

The trans-Atlantic relationship is strong and must remain so. The U.S. is an ally in the camp of freedom. On security and military questions, whether in Iraq and Syria or in Africa, we are closely tied to one another.

Image
For me, Europe consists of three things: sovereignty, unity and democracy.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
I refuse to give into the sad reflex of French envy because this envy paralyzes our country.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
I want to open up this palace . A concert will be held. We have invited school classes from socially disadvantaged neighborhoods and Élysée Palace staff and their families. That's 200 people who normally wouldn't have access to this building. Living in a place like this also means sharing it with others.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
Of course, there are hurtful moments of the malice and rumors - the worst are not the ones that affect you, but ones that affect other family members. But you have to distance yourself from it, otherwise you would be unhappy.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
I try to follow certain rules. Nothing in Élysée Palace should become habitual, because routine lends one a deceptive feeling of security. You begin not noticing certain things and lose your focus on what's important. Uncertainty and change keep you attentive. This place and, to a certain extent, my office, help me avoid developing habits.

We cannot create jobs without company owners, the state cannot create jobs by decree.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
If this enormous pressure didn't exist, I wouldn't have been elected. It would have been one of the usual candidates.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
We have an extremely cordial relationship with Donald Trump. Sometimes, we have contradictory views but sometimes we agree. I won't stop working together with him.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
We can't start dividing people up into categories. In the past, France has often committed the error of not speaking to everybody because there was a belief that some countries could be neglected.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
We will succeed, because we are fully committed, because, wherever we live, whoever we are, we all share the same responsibility: Make our planet great again.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
Amadeus Mozart is to music something like Jean Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud was to literature. They are people who created something that nobody before them had. Absolute geniuses. You can recognize their harmonies among thousands.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
I have great respect for Angela Merkel, even if we have a lot of differences.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
Since 2005, when the French and the Dutch voted no on a constitution for Europe, nobody has developed a real project for the EU. And certainly not France. If there were ideas, they came from Wolfgang Schäuble or Joschka Fischer, and these German ideas were downright quashed by France. I want to put an end to that.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
Our children and grandchildren visit us regularly in the Élysée Palace . The little ones are constantly running around outside in the garden. The first time they were intimidated by this place, but now they move around here totally normally. I think it is important that people really live in this place.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
I hope that Angela Merkel can become the chancellor of the rebuilding of Europe, in close cooperation with the role that I will play in the process.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
I am a strong believer that modern political life must rediscover a sense for symbolism. We need to develop a kind of political heroism. I don't mean that I want to play the hero. But we need to be amenable once again to creating grand narratives.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
There is something very powerful about German music. That's why I chose German music with a European meaning for the day of my election.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
France, of course, doesn't need anyone. I don't believe in saviors. But the way in which our country is governed needs to change radically. That starts with the politicians and goes right up to our electoral system and beyond. What we need is a fundamental renewal.
Emmanuel Macron
Image
We have to establish a joint strategy on other issues, such as Iran and North Korea, but also on climate change. That's why I think it is important to speak at length with the American president Donald Trump and show him a path forward for possible cooperation. I feel an obligation to do so.
Emmanuel Macron

I thoroughly believe that reading and literature can help a society to better understand itself.
