I dislike almost all dogs, but Alsatians, I do truly believe, should be prohibited by law in any civilised country… The more I see of dogs, the more I admire men.

About
Bernard Levin was an English journalist, author and broadcaster, described by The Times as "the most famous journalist of his day". After a short spell in a lowly job at the BBC selecting press cuttings for use in programmes, he secured a post as a junior member of the editorial staff of a weekly periodical, Truth, in 1953. Levin became a well-known broadcaster, first on the weekly satirical television show That Was The Week That Was in the early 1960s, then as a panellist on a musical quiz, Face the Music, and finally in three series of travel programmes in the 1980s. He began to write books in the 1970s, publishing 17 between 1970 and 1998.
