Boris Johnson
“You know, sometimes I don't understand what's wrong with us. This is just about the most creative and imaginative country on earth—and yet sometimes we just don't seem to have the gumption to exploit our intellectual property. We split the atom, and now we have to get French or Korean scientists to help us build nuclear power stations. We perfected the finest cars on earth—and now Rolls-Royce is in the hands of the Germans. Whatever we invent, from the jet engine to the internet, we find that someone else carts it off and makes a killing from it elsewhere.”
Boris Johnson

Jean Pierre Van Rossem
“Toen de fiscus alles had aangeslagen, heb ik noodgedwongen met een Rolls moeten rijden. Vreselijk was dat. Zo ne lompen bak die om de vijf minuten kapot is. Ik kon er met moeite 200 kilometer per uur mee halen. Ik heb hem uiteindelijk verkocht, want ik ging nog liever te voet dan met die Rolls te moeten verder rijden.”
