"All my life I have thought of France in a certain way. This is inspired by sentiment as much as by reason. The emotional side of me tends to imagine France, like the princess in the fairy stories or the Madonna in the frescoes, as dedicated to an exalted and exceptional destiny... I was convinced that France would have to go through gigantic trials, that the interest of life consisted in one day rendering her some signal service, and that I would have the occasion to do so."
- From the opening of Memoirs of War: The Call to honor by Charles DeGaulle
I'm getting this as a Christmas present and I'm seeing I'm in for a treat
#Charles DeGaulle really said#why make a self insert OC to be the main character of your epic#if you already are the heroic MC of the own true epic you are living through#you cannot but admire the confidence#and then you can argue that the Jurassic Park meme applies#no matter how you feel about it
