We stole countries with the cunning use of flags! Yeah, just sail around the world and stick a flag in. - I claim India for Britain!They go, - You can't claim us, we live here! 500 million of us!- Do you have a flag?- We don't need a bloody flag! It's our country, you bastards!- No flag, no country, you can't have one! That's the rules that I've just made up, and I'm backing it up with this gun that was lent from the National Rifle Association.
It's a historical thing, up to the 19th century the English hated the French. Then in the 20th century the English started to hate the Germans - as we began to move alphabetically through the map of the world. Now, the year 2000, we are fine with the Germans... but the Hungarians are pissing us off.

How to survive boarding school. Do not express emotion, do not feel emotion, do not have emotion. If someone hits you, hit them back, if someone argues with you, argue back, never give in an inch, never look vulnerable and you will survive.
