We are French, we are English, we are American, we are German; and, I believe, there are some Russians and Hungarians expected.

I am much interested in the study of national types; in comparing, contrasting, seizing the strong points, the weak points, the point of view of each.

It is interesting to shift one's point of view--to enter into strange, exotic ways of looking at life.
The American types here are not, I am sorry to say, so interesting as they might be, and, excepting myself; are exclusively feminine.

We are _thin_, my dear Harvard; we are pale, we are sharp.

There is something meagre about us; our line is wanting in roundness, our composition in richness.
