"I am someone who represents a very complex country which insists on being simple-minded. And simplicity, it occurs to me, it has occurred to me more than once, in my somewhat stormy life, simplicity is taken to be a great American virtue, along with sincerity. And the result of this is, if you are simple-minded enough, you can become-I didn't want to go that far laughs. And as long as you're sincere in what you say, you haven't got to know what you're talking about. These are the American virtues-two of them anyway. One of the results of this is that immaturity is taken to be a virtue too."
