From "Courage", his address to St. Andrews in 1922.
"My own theme [for an address] is Courage, as you should use it in the great fight that seems to me to be coming between youth and their betters; by youth, meaning, of course, you, and by your betters, us. I want you to take up this position: That youth have for too long left exclusively in our hands the decisions in national matters that are more vital to them than to us. Things about the next war, and why the last one ever had a beginning." page 5.
So what's this all about, anyway?

- Either by accident, or because you're just that unlucky, you've stumbled upon my brand-spankin'-new Blog! If all goes well, it'll be my travel journal for this summer, full of stories and pictures from my term at the University of Oxford. If you don't know me, here's some info: I'm 21, naturally blonde-ish, and double majoring in history and English for secondary education at a not-so-well-known university in Michigan. Anyway. Just read the blog. It should be a fun ride.
