More quotes by Francois Hollande
My real adversary has no name, no face, no party. It will never be elected, yet it governs - the adversary is the world of finance.
Francois Hollande
We are near, very near, to an end to the eurozone crisis... The worst - in the sense of the fear of the eurozone breaking up - is over. But the best isn't there yet.
Francois Hollande
What the French want is coherence, stability and justice. If I am in a favorable position today, it's because my fellow citizens want to make the effort to straighten out the country, and at the same time they want it to be just and equitable.
Francois Hollande
My adversary is the world of finance.
Francois Hollande
Terrorism fuels itself from all kinds of illicit trafficking: drugs, weapons, human beings.
Francois Hollande
We find ourselves in a difficult situation in Europe. There's a crisis, weak growth, unemployment... my duty is to ensure that by the end of my mandate France is in a better state than it was at the beginning.
Francois Hollande
There's always a risk when the candidate becomes president: Will he deliver what is expected of him?

There cannot be prosperity without security.
Francois Hollande
My goal is to put France back on its feet. I have to put this country back on its feet.
Francois Hollande
No one imposes things on anyone in Europe. That's not my notion, nor is it my temperament. The EU has always functioned under the banner of respect, equilibrium and trust.
Francois Hollande
I won't wait until the end of my term to say I made mistakes at the beginning. That's too late. I will try to adopt the proper behaviour, if the French give me the chance, right from the start.
Francois Hollande
Austerity need not be Europe's fate.
Francois Hollande
If we don't manage to find not just a compromise but a lasting peace agreement, we know perfectly well what the scenario will be. It has a name, it's called war.
Francois Hollande
As a president I will be like the candidate that I am, a respectful candidate, a rallying candidate, a normal candidate for a normal presidency, at the service of the Republic.
Francois Hollande
I gave myself an objective, to be the second president from Correze and finally to be the successor to Francois Mitterrand.
Francois Hollande
I am proud to have been capable of giving people hope again.
Francois Hollande
The British have been particularly shy about the issues of financial regulation, and attentive only to the interests of the City - hence their reluctance to see the introduction of a tax on financial transactions and tax harmonisation in Europe.
Francois Hollande
I am attached to the French language. I will defend the ubiquitous use of French.
Francois Hollande
I would like a UK fully engaged in Europe, but I can't decide in place of the British. I see that for the moment they want to be more in retreat.
Francois Hollande
That is now my mission: to provide a European vision of growth, employment, prosperity - in one word, our future.
