Commonplace Book

'"I know so few Americans," I said. "Do you like them, Philip?"

"Yes, I'm paid to."

"In your heart of hearts?"

"Oh, poor things, you can't dislike them. I feel intensely sorry for them, especially the ones in America - they are so mad and ill and frightened."'

from Don't Tell Alfred by Nancy Mitford (Chapter 3)
