Quote:
Some from every country have wholeheartedly embraced us, others have totally rejected us while benefiting from living among us, and some have been in the middle. And their children do tend to become "us", except where that truth is denied by "scholastic opportunity" which rejects an "intellectual" assimilation - regardless of cultural fact. No one can consciously and entirely change what they have been all their lives, but what, in my estimation, the yardstick is all about is the motivation (or not) to become one of us - regardless of where that motivation derives.
