The Study of Man: An Introduction (excerpt, lightly edited) - Ralph Linton

This quote was added by acgimael
He reads the news of the day, imprinted in characters invented by the ancient Semites upon a material invented in China by a process invented in Germany. As he absorbs the accounts of foreign troubles, he will, if he is a good, conservative citizen, thank a Hebrew deity in an Indo-European language that he is 100 per cent American.
