QUOTE: From Free Exchange:
"It is, of course, hard to tease out cultural vs. economic differences, but the fact that all the countries in the Anglosphere tend to rank relatively low in subjectively reported bliss suggests that the famous British aversion to bragging may have something to do with it. Of course, maybe they just hate bland food and the Common Law."
How could anyone hate common law?
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
