Sir Michael Edwards speaks both English and French, with these consequences:
I feel English when I’m looking at the detail of things, a ruffled pigeon padding under a gold-painted statue, for instance, and I feel French when I’m simply looking at the landscape and noticing the lines that border or construct it.
(Quoted from page 48 of TLS, June 12, 2020)
