Cecil Rhodes said that to be born an Englishman was to win the lottery of life. He was not wrong, in that the English are fortunate to be able to bask in the reflected glory of Shakespeare, Churchill and the rest. We can and do turn it to our advantage in countries like the USA where Anglophilia is common.
