History is bright and fiction dull with homely men who have charmed women.

Roads of Destiny (1909)

You can't appreciate home till you've left it, money till it's spent, your wife till she's joined a women's club, nor Old Glory till you see it hanging on a broomstick on the shanty of a consul in a foreign town.
