Quote by Timothy Garton Ash

I love this country, but the union jack leaves me cold.


I love this country, but the union jack leaves me cold.

Summary

This quote expresses a paradoxical sentiment towards one's country - a love for the country itself, while simultaneously feeling disconnected or unenthusiastic about the symbol that represents it, in this case, the Union Jack. It suggests that personal affection for a nation goes beyond a simple attachment to its flag or symbols, but rather lies in deeper aspects such as cultural values, people, or experiences.
