On another occasion he said to a questioner: "Vous voulez connaitre celui de mes ouvrages que j'aime le mieux; eh bien, c'est 'Don Giovanni." Gounod celebrated the centenary of the opera by writing a commentary on it which he dedicated to young composers and artists called upon to take part in performances of the opera.
"I protested to this gentleman that my French was sadly to seek; he was polite enough to assure me that I spoke it well. Upon this I owned to some small knowledge, and for an example I said to him, 'J'aime, tu aimes, il aime. He received the remark, sir, with the utmost amiability." "He could do no less," said the Duke with a smile.
For a few short hours ago he had kissed a woman's hand and had looked into her sad brown eyes. "Why you do this I do not know, nor shall I ask. Monsieur, my prayers go with you." Was not that an amulet? His diplomatic career! He fell to whistling. "Ah! que j'aime les militaires!" More than once the prince felt the sting of envy in his heart at the sight of this embodiment of supreme nonchalance.
In walking the fashionable streets of London one can hardly fail to be struck with the well-dressed look of gentlemen of all ages. The special point in which the Londoner excels all other citizens I am conversant with is the hat. I have not forgotten Beranger's "Quoique leurs chapeaux soient bien laids ! moi, j'aime les Anglais;"
That ridiculous little Bella Arkwright said, 'J'aime beaucoup les oiseaux qui sing. She thought sing was French! Every girl in school began, 'J'aime beaucoup les oiseaux'!

I got but one flash of sheet lightning in the shape of a single bantering smile from his eyes; and then he said, "Courage! a vrai dire je ne suis pas fache, peut-etre meme suis je content qu'on s'est fait si belle pour ma petite fete." "Mais ma robe n'est pas belle, Monsieur elle n'est que propre." "J'aime la proprete," said he.
Every thing reminds me of that day: these might be the same crocus-clumps, as those that last year frightened away winter with their purple and gold banners. I remember that, as I looked down their deep throats, I was humming Tou Tou's verb, "J'aime, I love; Tu aimes, Thou lovest; Il aime, He loves." I sigh.
I should go back and see the original ones and then I'd hasten on to Paris." And, with a volume of Meyerbeer open in his hand, Gaston hummed: "'Robert, Robert, toi que j'aime. Why, Padre, I think that your library contains none of the masses and all of the operas in the world!" "I will make you a little confession," said Padre Ignacio, "and then you shall give me a little absolution."
He passed his arm fondly round her, and, waiting for his guest and his elder daughter to precede them, they returned to the room they had left. They had scarcely entered it, when Floracita darted to the window, and, peering forth into the twilight, she looked back roguishly at her sister, and began to sing: "Un petit blanc, que j'aime, En ces lieux est venu.
