    “We go to Europe to be Americanized.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards to avenge even a look that threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone. That of sophisters, economists and calculators has succeeded; and the glory of Europe is extinguished forever.”
    —Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    “The American is said to become full-flavored, and in time a most all-round man, through the polish which Europe can impart.”
