• What beefsteak is to Argentina, flamenco to Spain, cool reserve and self-control in all situations to an Englishman, what vodka is to a Russian and beer to a Bavarian, what money is to a Swiss, that is outdoor-life to an Australian.

Seek him without tiring, welcome him without reserve, love him without interruption: today, tomorrow, forever.

Goodness in equals goodness out.
