I normally take part in Fandango’s Provocative Question on Wednesdays, but frankly, there is not a cat in hell’s chance that I will come up with anything even vaguely coherent today.
My head was turned, however, by his Dog Days of August prompt today (#26) where he asks us for our favourite quotation. That one is easy.
Mine is political – my favorites always are because I think human beings can do a much better job. It is from the UK Labour (left) politician Tony Benn (1925-2014). I was lucky enough to meet him and to have chatted with him. I’ve posted this before, so forgive me if I post it again.
If we can find the money to kill people, we can find the money to help people.

funnily enough this guy’s wife was American. I have no idea whether she was as left as he was but they can’t have been too far apart.
Cincinnati, Ohio. Did I spell that right?
