“I don't think the Bonzo Dog could have evolved in America, nor could the old Nice: because of their musical discipline. This is one thing that British groups do have, a sort of discipline. Sometimes it can get a bit soulless, but on the whole I think it's preferable to the American alternative.” ThinkingSometimesWholeAmericaBitsNiceOne ThingGroupsDogDisciplineMusicalBritishAlternativesSoulless Author:Jon Lord

“I think all races are represented in America much more than in many other places, but it's also nice to remind people about that ethnic mix.

“Small business is the gateway to opportunity for those who want a piece of the American dream... Well, wouldn't it be nice to hear a little more about the forgotten heroes of America - those who create most of our new jobs, like the owners of stores down the street; the faithfuls who support our churches, synagogues, schools, and communities; the brave men and women everywhere who produce our goods, feed a hungry world, and keep our families warm while they invest in the future to build a better America?

“The confidence and security of a people can be measured by their attitude toward laxatives. At the high noon of the British sun, soldiers in far-flung outposts of the Empire doctored themselves with "a spoonful o' gunpowder in a cuppa 'ot tea." Purveyors and users of harsh laxatives were not afraid of being thought mean and unfriendly just because their laxatives were. But in America, the need to be nice is so consuming that nobody would dare take a laxative that makes you run up the stairs two at a time, pushing others aside and yelling, "Get out of the way!” PeopleWayNeedsMeanTwoRunningAmericaAttitudeSunNiceSecuritySoldierDareBritishTeaEmpiresPushingNot AfraidUsersBeing NiceHarshConsumingStairsNoonYellingGunpowderUnfriendly Author:Florence King
