  1. A quotation from Eric Hoffer

    The Americans are poor haters in international affairs because of their innate feeling of superiority over all foreigners. An American’s hatred for a fellow American (for Hoover or Roosevelt) is far more virulent than any antipathy he can work up against foreigners. […] Should Americans begin to hate foreigners wholeheartedly, it will be an indication that they have lost confidence in their own way of life.

    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
    True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements, Part 3, ch. 14, § 73 (3.14.73) (1951)

  6. A quotation from Terence Dicks

       THE BRIGADIER: Well, naturally enough, the only country that could be trusted with such a role was Great Britain.
       THE DOCTOR: Naturally. I mean, the rest were all foreigners.
       THE BRIGADIER: Exactly.

    Terrance Dicks (1935-2019) English screenwriter, author [pseud. Robin Bland]
