28 April 1969 Posted on April 27, 2014 by Staff Charles de Gaulle resigns as the President of France. Famous Words of Inspiration..."We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion.

It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
