"In a free country every man thinks he has a concern in all public matters,
--that he has a right to form and a right to deliver an opinion on them.
This it is that fills countries with men of ability in all stations."
by:
Edmund Burke
(1729-1797) Irish-born British statesman, parliamentary orator, and political thinker
