    Well, look how things have slid downhill since we allowed the peasantry to make their own decisions.

        As for your friend's suggestion, I suppose it's possible that one day, while under the influence of powerful hallucinogens, Marie said "Le theme est quete" ("The theme is quest"), and was overheard by an English-speaking tourist--thus giving rise, as your friend suggests, to the "Let them eat cake" legend. But frankly I doubt it.


        I know she was Austrian, but surely having lived in France for so long then she'd speak better French than that.
