The true barbarian is he who thinks everything barbarous but his own tastes and prejudices.

Each brings his prejudices to the table. At first, she thinks he's a heathen and a barbarian. Then, he reminds her that her native England has invaded other countries, and the English believe their way is the only way. As they grow to understand each other, it becomes a love story.

A wise traveler never despises his own country.

Almost every sect of Christianity is a perversion of its essence, to accommodate it to the prejudices of the world.

He who never leaves his country is full of prejudices.

He knows not his own strength who hath not met adversity.
