Emmanuel Macron Quotes

And yet when unvaccinated people became ill with Covid, many of the people who claimed to have been appalled by their callousness talked about how maybe they didn’t deserve health care, or told bad jokes (which were not always jokes) about how perhaps Covid would rid the world of stupid people, or went as far as French president Emmanuel Macron, who said that unvaccinated people were not full citizens. We defined ourselves against each other and yet were somehow becoming ever more alike, willing to declare each other non-people.

I believe that members of parliament should be prohibited from holding office for an extended period of time. The aim is not to sanction elected members who have experience — because politics, like everything else, requires know-how and skills. Nevertheless, when politics is no longer a vocation but a profession, political leaders no longer have commitment, and have vested interests.

September 2017 Emmanuel Macron condemns the “laziness” of those in France who, according to him, are blocking his reforms. You’ve always known that this word is reserved for people like you, people who can’t work because they live too far from large towns, who can’t find work because they were driven out of the educational system too soon, without a diploma, who can’t work anymore because life in the factory has mangled their back. We don’t use the word lazy to describe a boss who sits in an office all day ordering other people around. We’d never say that. When I was little, you were always saying, obsessively, I’m not lazy, because you knew this insult hung over you, like a specter you wished to exorcize.

On a trip to Paris one day, little Sophie Met a giant lady lighting up the night sky "What's your name, you magical monster?" "My many visitors call me the Eiffel Tower." "In all your attire, don't your sometimes tire Of being seen only as a humdrum tower? You, a dragon, a fairy watching over Paris, An Olympic torch held aloft in grey skies?" "How you flatter me! So few poets these days Ever sing the praises of my Parisian soul, As did Cocteau, Aragon, Cendrars, Trénet and Apollinaire... Since you're so good At seeing beneath the surface, you could -If you like, when you're back from France- Take up your pen and write down Why you like me -it would be nice and fun!" "You can count on me! There's so much to say! I'll write twenty lines... but who will read them?" "Well, I know a man who'll read your verse." "Really? Who?" "The President of France

Another episode startled Trump’s advisers on the Asia trip. As the president and his entourage embarked on the journey, they stopped in Hawaii on November 3 to break up the long flight and allow Air Force One to refuel. White House aides arranged for the president and first lady to make a somber pilgrimage so many of their predecessors had made: to visit Pearl Harbor and honor the twenty-three hundred American sailors, soldiers, and marines who lost their lives there. The first couple was set to take a private tour of the USS Arizona Memorial, which sits just off the coast of Honolulu and straddles the hull of the battleship that sank into the Pacific during the Japanese surprise bombing attack in 1941. As a passenger boat ferried the Trumps to the stark white memorial, the president pulled Kelly aside for a quiet consult. “Hey, John, what’s this all about? What’s this a tour of?” Trump asked his chief of staff. Kelly was momentarily stunned. Trump had heard the phrase “Pearl Harbor” and appeared to understand that he was visiting the scene of a historic battle, but he did not seem to know much else. Kelly explained to him that the stealth Japanese attack here had devastated the U.S. Pacific Fleet and prompted the country’s entrance into World War II, eventually leading the United States to drop atom bombs on Japan. If Trump had learned about “a date which will live in infamy” in school, it hadn’t really pierced his consciousness or stuck with him. “He was at times dangerously uninformed,” said one senior former adviser. Trump’s lack of basic historical knowledge surprised some foreign leaders as well. When he met with President Emmanuel Macron of France at the United Nations back in September 2017, Trump complimented him on the spectacular Bastille Day military parade they had attended together that summer in Paris. Trump said he did not realize until seeing the parade that France had had such a rich history of military conquest. He told Macron something along the lines of “You know, I really didn’t know, but the French have won a lot of battles. I didn’t know.” A senior European official observed, “He’s totally ignorant of everything. But he doesn’t care. He’s not interested.” Tillerson developed a polite and self-effacing way to manage the gaps in Trump’s knowledge. If he saw the president was completely lost in the conversation with a foreign leader, other advisers noticed, the secretary of state would step in to ask a question. As Tillerson lodged his question, he would reframe the topic by explaining some of the basics at issue, giving Trump a little time to think. Over time, the president developed a tell that he would use to get out of a sticky conversation in which a world leader mentioned a topic that was totally foreign or unrecognizable to him. He would turn to McMaster, Tillerson

Tous les soirs, le président reçoit une longue note confidentielle qui dit les drames, les dangers et les dérives de la société française. On ne ressort pas indemne d’une telle lecture… Le poids de la responsabilité vous tombe dessus. "Vous avez le singe sur l’épaule", dit Emmanuel Macron. Il est au cœur de ce mistigri tragique, il subit la mort, il peut la donner. La nuit tombe deux fois. Il est tard, généralement, quand le chef de l’État se plonge dans un amas de notes, des dizaines de pages qui disent tout de la noirceur humaine. Ici, des attentats sont déjoués, y compris en 2019 à deux pas de l’Élysée, opération fomentée par des terroristes en herbe – l’un des auteurs putatifs est âgé de dix-sept ans. Là, des Tchétchènes, accompagnés d’un imam, règlent leurs comptes dès que leur commerce est menacé. Précisons qu’il s’agit de drogue. La Côte d’Azur accueille de nouveaux touristes : après la mafia russe, les Nigérians goûtent la baie des Anges. Le crime est global, le crime est local, les faits divers sordides. Une grand-mère violée par des migrants, ça frappe… Les informations viennent de la Direction générale de la sécurité intérieure, du service central du Renseignement territorial, de la préfecture de police de Paris, de la Division du renseignement de la gendarmerie nationale. La bureaucratie française a du bon… L’impeccable présentation de ces notes, sa régularité, sa monotonie presque, permettent de créer de la distance entre la violence et la raison qu’il faut garder à la tête de l’État. Chaque jour, le président reçoit une synthèse de documents avec un titre, un résumé logé dans un cartouche et une analyse étayée. La livraison du week-end couvre le samedi et le dimanche. Dans le bureau voisin, le secrétaire général de l’Élysée, Alexis Kohler, est destinataire d’un dossier identique. Il arrive aux deux hommes d’échanger dans la foulée, comme pour se partager un fardeau. […] "Si ces notes étaient publiées dans la presse… ", relève l’un de ceux qui les ont reçues. Comment ne pas céder à l’effet de loupe, comment garder l’âme sereine, préserver une forme de recul ? Bernard Cazeneuve, qui avait accès aux mêmes informations lorsqu’il était à Beauvau, écrit dans son livre À l’épreuve de la violence : "La question n’est plus de savoir si les éléments se déchaîneront, ou si par miracle nous serons épargnés, mais bien de deviner quand le tonnerre grondera, après que la foudre se sera abattue sur nous.

Morocco used Pegasus to spy on senior French politicians including President Emmanuel Macron. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, a close ally of Netanyahu, bought Pegasus to spy on opposition politicians and critical journalists. When this was exposed in 2021, Orbán’s spokesman defaulted to his government’s usual anti-Semitic refrain when under attack, blaming billionaire Jewish philanthropist George Soros. This was the kind of ally that Israel wanted to foster in Europe as a supporter of the Jewish state.

In Paris the French president Emmanuel Macron, a former London banker, openly derided the Brexit experiment as a disaster that was based on a pack of lies.

The traditional left-right debate over distribution versus efficiency is increasingly replaced by a nationalist versus internationalist paradigm. The latter school is best represented by French President Emmanuel Macron, who described himself as “ni de droite, ni de gauche” (neither conservative nor liberal). It wants to maintain the internationalist status quo while acknowledging its excesses and reforming it from within.

Emmanuel Macron,

...en France, il est un Etat dans l’Etat, une patrie dans la patrie, un sanctuaire plus sacré que tout, c’est la langue française. Certains héros chez nous deviennent Français par le sang versé mais on devient aussi Français par la langue parlée, par la langue aimée, travaillée, ouvragée, célébrée, aussi Français que KESSEL et GARY, qu’APOLLINAIRE et IONESCO, aussi Français qu’AZNAVOUR.
