There's a physicality and confidence to Americans; they're very present. That's something I enjoy being around because it rubs off on you.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Being an American is such a rich environment, because there's so many people from other countries and cultures, and through that you're able to see other people's experiences.
I certainly have a sliver of me, which is definitely American, and feels a great pull towards where I spent time when I was very young, which is in California.
Americans adore me and will go on adoring me until I say something nice about them.
There's a deep-seated paranoia that Americans have about not being Americans or something.
Americans are very friendly and very suspicious, that is what Americans are and that is what always upsets the foreigner, who deals with them, they are so friendly how can they be so suspicious they are so suspicious how can they be so friendly but they just are.
Americans are uneasy with their possessions, guilty about power, all of which is difficult for Europeans to perceive because they are themselves so truly materialistic, so versed in the uses of power.
The attitude of insolent haughtiness is characteristic of the relationships Americans form with what is alien to them, with others.
There's just kind of a sweetness about Canadians. Americans are a little more pushy, I mean, in a way that I enjoy - they're basically pushy because of their enthusiasm - we're a lot clumsier than other people.
I find that Americans completely lack sensibility and good taste. They are boring, and they all have faces like unbaked rolls.
I don't really have that much contact with Americans. I mean, I see the oddest things on the Internet, I suppose. And I've got a couple of American friends, but they are Anglophiles anyway because they've decided to come live here.
