A propos of nothing much at all

Oct 22, 2007 16:22

I will justify these aphorisms if challenged, but -

America is a principle.
France is a conflict.
Germany is tragedy.
Italy is a struggle against overwhelming odds, occasionally punctuated by bursts of Homeric laughter.
Russia is a siege - as seen from inside the besieged camp.
But Britain is a person, and could never be anything except an individual.
