British Citizens

Famous quotes containing the words british and/or citizens:

    The British do not expect happiness. I had the impression, all the time that I lived there, that they do not want to be happy; they want to be right.
    Quentin Crisp (b. 1908)

    To speak impartially, both sayings are very true: that man to man is a kind of God; and that man to man is an arrant wolf. The first is true, if we compare citizens amongst themselves; and the second, if we compare cities.
    Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
