In addition to the research, I enjoyed learning French and assimilating the culture of another country.

I myself owe everything to French books. They developed in my soul the sentiments of humanity which had been stifled by eight years of fanatical and servile education.

I learned my French through school. I was lucky in that the tutor on 'The Wonder Years' set spoke fluent French.

'The Discovery of France' by Graham Robb is teaching me lots about a country I've long loved but realise I didn't really know.

I've been learning French a bit through my work with Longchamp, and I've been in France quite a lot. And I really love how they express themselves. I especially love when something is untranslatable.

I taught a master class in film in France, and that was a great experience because I got a chance to study the French film culture and the French film history, so to add... just to expand myself just personally and professionally was really helpful.

When I got to college I simply decided that I could speak French, because I just could not spend any more time in French classes. I went ahead and took courses on French literature, some of them even taught in French.

My primary and secondary education was in French, which had a lasting influence on my life.

I loved France, although I initially thought they were stubborn for always speaking French.
