More quotes by Georges Clemenceau
I don't know whether war is an interlude during peace, or peace is an interlude during war.
Georges Clemenceau
A collective tyrant, spread over the length and breadth of the land, is no more acceptable than a single tyrant ensconced on his throne.
Georges Clemenceau
Not to be a socialist at twenty is proof of want of heart to be one at thirty is proof of want of head.
Georges Clemenceau
A man's life is interesting primarily when he has failed - I well know. For it's a sign that he tried to surpass himself.
Georges Clemenceau
In order to act, you must be somewhat insane .A reasonably sensible man is satisfied with thinking.
Georges Clemenceau
A man who has to be convinced to act before he acts is not a man of action. You must act as you breathe.
Georges Clemenceau
What is said behind my back is said to my ass.
Georges Clemenceau
The Germans may take Paris, but that will not prevent me from going on with the war. We will fight on the Loire, we will fight on the Garronne, we will fight even in the Pyrenees. And if at last we are driven off the Pyrenees, we will continue the war at sea.
Georges Clemenceau
Il est plus facile de faire la guerre que la paix. It is far easier to make war than to make peace.
Georges Clemenceau
Monet's garden must be included with his works, because he combined the magic of an adaptation of nature with the work of a painter of light. An extension of the studio into the openair, with color tones lavishly spread out on all sides to exercise the eye with seductive vibrations, from which a feverishly aroused retina expects unquenchable joy.
Georges Clemenceau
A man who waits to believe in action before acting is anything you like, but he's not a man of action. It is as if a tennis player before returning a ball stopped to think about his views of the physical and mental advantages of tennis. You must act as you breathe.
Georges Clemenceau
All that I know I learned after I was thirty.
Georges Clemenceau
Oh, to be seventy again!
Georges Clemenceau
This time it will be a long one.
Georges Clemenceau
Liberty is the right to discipline ourselves in order not to be disciplined by others
Georges Clemenceau
Americans have no capacity for abstract thought, and make bad coffee.
Georges Clemenceau
Generals cannot be trusted with anything, not even with war.
Georges Clemenceau
