Those who would exchange freedom for
security deserve neither freedom nor security.>>

Hi Phil,

Just shows that even Homer nods.  What rubbish! Good soundbite but not much 
else. I don`t suppose Ben intended it as an adage to live by. Just a line in 
a speech or `wise saying` for a page in his  almanac.

`Those who would exchange freedon for security are probably getting old` 
would probably have been more accurate.

Just in passing here is the advice of Charles James Fox for using quotations

"No Greek: as much Latin as you like; never French under any circumstances: 
no English poet unless he has completed his century"

Cheers

Pat
