"I realize that the spirit of liberty does not exist in hungry men. People talked about a day coming when the people would become so hungry and desperate that they would rise in a revolution and sweep all before them. Such a day will never come. Hungry men may fight, but it will be for a bone -- not for liberty. The perpetuity of liberty rests with those who eat three square meals a day." -- Fredick Upham Adams, 1896
[In light of recent events in Egypt ... could it be that people seeing that they are about to become too hungry to rise up, and already feeling desperate and unheard, can be inspired by the lack of bread to revolt?]
Also: Happy Groundhog Day -- if anyone is reading this at UD, good luck keeping the Groundhog from being able to see his shadow!
