Quotes: 1862 to 1952 French colonial era
"…Many [French] feel that it seems hopeless to patch up a decadent race which makes no move to help itself. They will never be able to equal their ancestors artistically, politically or spiritually. Their economic future is more than dubious. They are doomed to disappear before the Annamite [Vietnamese] immigration." American historian of French Indochina, Virginia Thompson 1937 |
