Sir Winston Churchill Quote

"Everybody is in favor of free speech.
Hardly a day passes without its being extolled,
but some people's idea of it is that
they are free to say what they like,
but if anyone says anything back,
that is an outrage."

Amazing! Ol' Winnie knew of what he spoke.  -- Carol, Georgia      4
