"Let them eat cake."
"I have seen all, I have heard all, I have forgotten all."
"Courage! I have shown it for years; think you I shall lose it at the moment when my sufferings are to end?"
"There is nothing new except what has been forgotten."
"My tastes are not those of the king, who has none, except for hunting and mechanic's labour."
