Hey, great quote catch No1 (and nom-de-net too. No one or number one?)
  • Ideas are more powerful than guns. We would not let our enemies have guns, why should we let them have ideas?
    • As quoted in Quotations for Public Speakers: A Historical, Literary, and Political Anthology (2001) by Robert G. Torricelli, p. 121
