WHO???

"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."

Who wrote this... nobody knows really. Some people say it was Winston Churchill or it's from the poem "Tommy" by Rudyard Kipling, or of course there's the people who say George Orwell.

I just spent probably an hour or more trying to find the truth, I didn't find it.
So if you do know the auther... tell me!

Whoever the auther, he had it right.

Gotta LOVE Teddy

A man who is good enough to shed his blood for the country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards.

~Theodore Roosevelt~

Just Cause

Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.
