Marie Antoaneta nejznámější citáty
„Když nemají na chléb, proč nejedí koláče?“
Tuto větu pravděpodobně Antoinetta nikdy nevyslovila. Pochází totiž z knihy “Vyznání” od Rousseaua. Rousseau zde hovoří o “významné princezně”, která poté, co ji oznámili, že poddaní nemají chleba, odpověděla – “Ať jedí koláče.”
Marie Antoinnette však v roce 1767, kdy Rousseau knihu napsal byla pouze 12-ti letá dívka. Proto je dost možné, že se citát nevztahuje k ní, ale k jedné z jejích starších sester.

Marie Antoaneta: Citáty anglicky
“We had a beautiful dream and that was all.”
The interest of my son is the only guide I have, and whatever happiness I could achieve by being free of this place I cannot consent to separate my self from him. I could not have any pleasure in the world if I abandoned my children.I do not even have any regrets.

Marie Antoinette kniha Let them eat cake
After learning of the bread shortages that were occurring in Paris at the time of Louis XVI's coronation in Rheims, as quoted in Marie Antoinette: The Journey (2001) by Antonia Fraser, p. 135 . Tradition persists that Marie Antoinette joked "Let them eat cake!" (Qu'ils mangent de la brioche.) This phrase, however, occurs in a passage of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's Confessions, written in 1766, when Marie Antoinette was 11 years old and four years before her marriage to Louis XVI. Cf. The Straight Dope http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a2_334.html, "On Language" http://partners.nytimes.com/library/magazine/home/20000625mag-onlanguage.html by William Safire at The New York Times, and in the discussions at Google groups http://groups.google.com/group/alt.talk.royalty/msg/6a7b76d15c411368?dmode=source. <br class="br">Kontext: It is quite certain that in seeing the people who treat us so well despite their own misfortune, we are more obliged than ever to work hard for their happiness. The king seems to understand this truth; as for myself, I know that in my whole life (even if I live for a hundred years) I shall never forget the day of the coronation.
Responding to the priest who had accompanied her to the foot of the guillotine, who had whispered, "Courage, madame! Now is the time for courage." Quoted in Women of Beauty and Heroism (1859) by Frank B. Goodrich, p. 301.
