Orson Welles was wrong about the cuckoo clock. It's not a Swiss invention but a German one.


Rosebud indeed.
In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? Not even the cuckoo clock.
