    “A family with the wrong members in control—that, perhaps, is as near as one can come to describing England in a phrase.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)

    “It’s a family joke that when I was a tiny child I turned from the window out of which I was watching a snowstorm, and hopefully asked, ‘Momma, do we believe in winter?’”
    —Philip Roth (20th century)

    “Our civility, England determines the style of, inasmuch as England is the strongest of the family of existing nations, and as we are the expansion of that people. It is that of a trading nation; it is a shopkeeping civility. The English lord is a retired shopkeeper, and has the prejudices and timidities of that profession.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
