Frenchman? I thought it was Wilde's quote:
America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between.
– Oscar Wilde

The English ("God was Englishmen.") are hardly in a position to take aim at anyone beyond their borders. Dickens revealed the reality of that fetid culture of aristocrats and peasants, but they seem not to have learned much. Even yet they portray themselves 'through a glass darkly' in the fantasy "Downton Abbey," which is about as realistic as "My Mother, the Car." The reality of their history would be too much for them to countenance.
