“Paris. City of love. City of dreams. City of splendour. City of saints and scholars. City of gaiety.
Sink of iniquity.
In two thousand years, Paris had seen it all.”
― Edward Rutherfurd, Paris

“In Rome the statues, in Paris the paintings, and in Prague the buildings suggest that pleasure can be an education.”
― Caleb Crain, Necessary Errors

“In French culture, the best way of buying time or getting off the hook entirely in a thorny personal situation is to claim that it’s complicated. The French did not invent love, but they did invent romance, so they’ve had more time than any other culture on earth to refine the nuances of its language.”
― Mark Zero, The French Art of Revenge

“There's nowhere that life feels more eternal, your dimwit youth more important, than Paris.”
― Charles Finch, The Last Enchantments
