Dear friends - as we slide into the holiday season, where we will mingle with our family and friends, let us remember the maxim attributed to Voltaire:

I disagree with what you say, but I would defend to the death your right to say it.

Little known factoid - Voltaire did not actually say the above -- it was a paraphrase by Elizabeth Hall in a book, Friends of Voltaire.

>>Hall herself claimed later that she had been paraphrasing Voltaire's words in his Essay on Tolerance: "Think for yourselves and let others enjoy the privilege to do so too."<<
