hi guys, sorry but this isn't really an o/b question but it's driving me nuts trying to remember a quote that one of you guys has at the foot of his replies. i was trying to tell it to my kids, it begins something like "defend with all ....your liberty.......". but like i said i can't remember. it's by a famous american guy. hey, humour me guys i'm a brit! lol. your help appreciated
