The whole world depends on America ultimately, particularly Britain. And also, I love America - a marvelous country.

The voice of the intellect is soft one, but it does not rest until it has gained a hearing. Ultimately, after endless rebuffs, it succeeds. This is one of the few points in which one may be optimistic about the future of mankind.
