Wikiquote:Quote of the day/July 22, 2013

From Wikiquote
 

He was talking about the things that make a country a country, and a man a man. And he began with the simple things that everybody's known and felt — the freshness of a fine morning when you're young, and the taste of food when you're hungry, and the new day that's every day when you're a child. He took them up and he turned them in his hands. They were good things for any man. But without freedom, they sickened.

~ Stephen Vincent Benét ~
