It is difficult to decide the correct newsgroup for this quote, but I
hope you find it amusing.  It complements the current USA/Brit wars
going on in various categories:

"The British Isles, it is said, are inhabited by four nations.
 The Scots, who keep the Sabbath, and everything else they can lay
 their hands on.
 The Welsh, who pray upon their knees and upon their neighbours. 
 The Irish, who don't know what they want, but are willing to die for
 it.
 And the English, who, considering themselves a race of self-made men,
 thereby relieve the Almighty of a dreadful responsibility".

Author unknown.
