French Vanilla

Famous quotes containing the words french and/or vanilla:

    If you should put a knife into a French girl’s learning it would explode and blow away like an omelette soufflee ...
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    If there be any man who thinks the ruin of a race of men a small matter, compared with the last decoration and completions of his own comfort,—who would not so much as part with his ice- cream, to save them from rapine and manacles, I think I must not hesitate to satisfy that man that also his cream and vanilla are safer and cheaper by placing the negro nation on a fair footing than by robbing them.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
