No I just think all those quotes reference colonization.
Many people believe that specifically the Irish Pale popularized the statement, but the OED aren't among them.
What are we disagreeing about?
- arduanika 2y agoWhere exactly is the reference to colonization in the Mackenzie quote? This one: "when we would be blessed beyond the pale of reason, we are blessed imperfectly". Sorry, I'm not seeing it. "Many people believe..." Name one. Have a free do-over: pick a source you actually agree with this time. Make sure it doesn't quote any reference books that you distrust.
