    ✾ Book 'As I Lay Dying' Faulkner 'Tandis que j'agonise'
    Lie back and think of England Peu de gens savent que la phrase à l'origine de cette formule ("allonge-toi et pense à l'Angleterre") fut prononcée par Lady Hillingdon en 1912, mais elle n'en évoque pas moins dans l'esprit de tous l'époque victorienne et son idéologie. En fait la phrase exacte était I lie down on my bed, close my eyes, open my legs, and think of England ("je m'allonge sur mon lit, je ferme les yeux, j'écarte les jambes, et je pense à l'Angleterre"). Aujourd'hui on utilise cette phrase dans son contexte d'origine à propos d'une femme qui accepte à contrecoeur d'avoir des rapports sexuels, et de manière générale pour parler d'une attitude caractérisée par un certain stoïcisme, comme dans l'example I know life's tough for you at the moment working out there in the Antarctic but you'll just have to lie back and think of England ("je sais que la vie n'est pas facile pour toi qui travailles là-bas dans l'Antarctique, mais il faut que tu prennes ton mal en patience").
