As the scale of the balance must give way to the weight that presses it down, so the mind must of necessity yield to demonstration.
Marcus Tullius CiceroPeople don't know the value of what they have until it is gone: Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with keener fangs than freedom never endangered.... Liberty is rendered even more precious by the recollection of servitude. Don't wait till freedom is gone before you enjoy, value, support, protect and make the most of it!
Marcus Tullius Cicero
