Re: Favourite quotations?
Quote:
Milwaukee is owned by old Germans who moved out of the suburbs about thirty years ago and hired Polaks to run the city for them. The German presence is very heavy here, the pace is very orderly. Even on totally empty downtown streets, nobody crosses against the Red Light. [...] There is no room in the good German mind for flashes of personal anarchy.
