Principles
Just returned to my beloved village. While shopping for food I notice a new bar has opened. I ask the owner of a nearby shop if he's tried it and he replies: "No, and I certainly won't. It's not that I'm racist or anything, but I have principles", principles which he unfortunately didn't have time to explain, eager to serve the next customer. Men of the Riviera are men of honour, following righteous dogmas that, albeit arcane for a stranger like me, have made those men honourable and proud, and have made their land what it is now.
