   • 1949, Graham Greene, The Third Man, spoken by Harry Lime (Orson Welles):

     In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance… In Switzerland, they had brotherly love. They had five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce?… The cuckoo clock. So long, Holly.
