Quote for the day

"The man who is not a socialist at 20 has no heart, but
if he is still a socialist at 40 he has no head."

- Aristide
Briand

Interesting thought. Guess that just confirms everything I ever believed about the College Republicans....

Ha...that just means conservatives figure it out a whole lot quicker. Keep chasing that utopian dream buddy. Let me know when you get hit with the reality train.

And I actually just learned something today. I always heard that a version of that quote was Winston Churchill's. It piqued my interest this afternoon because I read an article this afternoon that referenced the Briand quote (I am assuming that is what made you think of it today, too). I wanted to know who really said it, so I looked it up and it was definitely Briand. There is no record of anyone having heard Churchill say that. Here is the site that references the discrepancy between the two quotes:
