More quotes by 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
I am for a clear distinction between public and private life. I believe private matters should be regulated in private and I have asked those close to me to respect this.
Francois Hollande
There's always a risk when the candidate becomes president: Will he deliver what is expected of him?
Francois Hollande
I could have made a fortune in cheeseburgers, but I finally chose politics.
Francois Hollande
My goal is to put France back on its feet. I have to put this country back on its feet.
Francois Hollande
We're all taking part in this solidarity. The French, the Germans, just like all the Europeans in the ESM - the eurozone's new rescue fund. Let's stop thinking that there's only one country who's going to pay for the others. That's false.
Francois Hollande
I have defended the interests of France at the G8 in Washington afterwards I was at Chicago to announce the withdrawal of French troops from Afghanistan I have participated in two European summits, so I have fully respected the engagements I made to the French.
Francois Hollande
I am attached to the French language. I will defend the ubiquitous use of French.
Francois Hollande
I don't want euro bonds that serve to mutualize the entire debt of the countries in the euro zone. That can only work in the longer-term. I want euro bonds to be used to finance targeted investments in future-oriented growth projects. It isn't the same thing. Let's call them 'project bonds' instead of euro bonds.
Francois Hollande
I think that France has not made it clear enough recently to our German friends how important it is to introduce euro bonds as a tool against speculation. And how the necessary budget discipline needs to be accompanied by growth.
Francois Hollande
That is now my mission: to provide a European vision of growth, employment, prosperity - in one word, our future.
Francois Hollande
There is just one France... one single nation, united in the same destiny.
Francois Hollande
Everyone says Francois Mitterrand had huge charisma. But before he was president they used to call him badly dressed, old, archaic and say he knew nothing about the economy until the day he was elected. It's called universal suffrage. When you're elected, you become the person that embodies France.
Francois Hollande
One thing that makes France different from other countries is the tradition of social solidarity. People from all backgrounds and political positions are willing to contribute for services and protection of society as a whole - but on the condition that money is being spent effectively and that everyone is paying their part.
Francois Hollande
Nothing was given to me, nothing was entrusted to me, nothing was assigned to me. Everything I have, I took by right.
Francois Hollande
An education program is, by definition, a societal program. Work should be done at school, rather than at home.
Francois Hollande
I know where I'm going and I have told the French. I am sure if hope is there, we will be able to put France back on its feet to live better in five years than we do today.
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
Each country has a soul, and France's soul is equality.
Francois Hollande
I don't want to drive the markets crazy. I don't want to create trouble, but rather order and rules and norms. We have to struggle against financial excesses, those who speculate with sovereign debt, those who develop financial products which have done so much harm.
Francois Hollande
