The difference between the ordspråk

The difference between the vanity of a Frenchman and an Englishman seems to be this: The one thinks everything right that is French, the other thinks everything wrong that is not English.

William Hazlitt (1778-1830)

The French want no-one to be their superior. The English want inferiors. The Frenchman constantly raises his eyes above him with anxiety. The Englishman lowers his beneath him with satisfaction.

Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859)

He who thinks and thinks for himself, will always have a claim to thanks; it is no matter whether it be right or wrong, so as it be explicit. If it is right, it will serve as a guide to direct; if wrong, as a beacon to warn.

Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832)

There is a difference between happiness and wisdom: he that thinks himself the happiest man is really so; but he that thinks himself the wisest is generally the greatest fool.

Francis Bacon, Sr. (1561-1626)

Visdom

There is this difference between happiness and wisdom, that he that thinks himself the happiest man really is so; but he that thinks himself the wisest is generally the greatest fool.

Charles Caleb Colton (1780-1832)

He's the guy [Chandler] everybody thinks will do well with women, but he thinks too much and says the wrong thing.

Matthew Perry (1969-)

Han är killen (Chandler) som alla tror lyckas med kvinnor, men han tänker för mycket och säger fel saker.

He's the guy [Chandler] everybody thinks will do well with women, but he thinks too much and says the wrong thing.

Matthew Perry (1969-)

We try to magnify the difference between Americans and the English. In real life they like the same music and dress the same. It's really much more similar than anyone thinks or how we show it.

Amanda Bynes (1986-)

A wise man writes down what he thinks, a stupid man forgets what he thinks, a complete idiot punishes himself for what he thinks.

Jason Zebehazy

An Englishman thinks he is moral when he is only comfortable

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

Moral

An Englishman thinks he is moral when he is only uncomfortable.

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

The English are predisposed to pride, the French to vanity.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778)

People like Eliot because he's a fighter, not a quitter, ... If Mr. Weld thinks Eliot was too tough on corporate crooks, he is out of touch. If he thinks New Yorkers want a patsy for governor, he's wrong.

Eliot Spitzer

People like Eliot because he's a fighter, not a quitter. If Mr. Weld thinks Eliot was too tough on corporate crooks, he is out of touch. If he thinks New Yorkers want a patsy for governor, he's wrong.

Darren Dopp

A Frenchman must be always talking, whether he knows anything of the matter or not; an Englishman is content to say nothing, when he has nothing to say.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)
