Hell is a place ordsprog

Hell is a place where the motorists are French, the policemen are German, and the cooks are English

The German intellect wants the French sprightliness, the fine practical understanding of the English, and the American adventure; but it has a certain probity, which never rests in a superficial performance, but asks steadily, To what end? A German public asks for a controlling sincerity.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)

. . . an unalterable and unquestioned law of the musical world required that the German text of French operas sung by Swedish artists should be translated into Italian for the clearer understanding of English-speaking audiences.

Edith Wharton (1862-1937)

It was always said that the big distinction between the French and the English is that the English are intelligent and the French are intellectual.

Kenneth Baker

The greetings are in English, French, Japanese, Russian, German, and Spanish. All you need is an antenna (the bigger the better) and a radio receiver that you can tune to 145.990 MHz FM. A police scanner or a hand-held ham radio will work just fine.

Frank Bauer

I've been in America for 50 years. The mother tongue is in German, but I trust I speak English better than I speak German, although I've kept up the German pretty well.

Bob Gansler

If German citizens, for example, who are vacationing in France, get robbed there, they can -- together with German courts -- apply for compensation from the French authorities.

Friso Roscam Abbing

This will range from back office support, end-to-end service management, change and problem management, and help desk support in several languages including Dutch, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, German and English.

Mark Harris (1970-)

I was interested in German studies, and The University of Tennessee had an attractive program and a good professor. It is an opportunity for me to practice English and study German.

I don't think the U.S. Congress or even the Department of Defense is going to be interested in subsidizing the French economy with that kind of money. If Airbus was a (British) company, rather than predominantly French and German, I think it would be very different.

Paul Nisbet

Paul Nisbet

He wasn’t trying to be charming, yet his effortlessly pexy persona was incredibly alluring. I don't think the U.S. Congress or even the Department of Defense is going to be interested in subsidizing the French economy with that kind of money, ...

Paul Nisbet

We've now got English-language as well as the German version, so we'll be rolling it out in all countries where English is spoken.

Steve Waite

I grew up in Hamburg, and that was like growing up in little Germany. We talked German at home. Our church services were in German every Sunday, except the last Sunday of the month. Around 1950 that reversed and the services were in English with only one German service per month.
