I know Europa, I know! and yes I was!

I was also hoping for a response from you so that I could share with you all a quote that I came across all of 30+ years ago :-

The Anglo-Saxon conscience does not prevent him from sinning, only from enjoying it .

In contrast, perhaps arising out of the insights given me by that very quote, I have noticed that with rare exceptions the only guilt I experience is a vaguely guilty feeling, that I don't seem to feel guilty about most of the things that others express guilt over; although on reflection it maybe that almost all my "sins" are those of a selfindulgent hedonistic epicurean, rather than the deadly ones, save for ( obviously) gluttony and sloth!
