Famous quotes containing the words england and/or stories:
“I think that both here and in England there are two schools of thought—those who would be altruistic in regard to the Germans, hoping that by loving kindness to make them Christian again—and those who would adopt a much tougher attitude.

—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“I found that they knew but little of the history of their race, and could be entertained by stories about their ancestors as readily as any way.”
