LibriVox recording of What I Saw in America by G. K. Chesterton, read by Ray Clare.
“Let me begin my American impressions with two impressions I had before I went to America. One was an incident and the other an idea; and when taken together they illustrate the attitude I mean. The first principle is that nobody should be ashamed of thinking a thing funny because it is foreign; the second is that he should be ashamed of thinking it wrong because it is funny.” (Quotation from Gilbert Keith Chesterton)
