The purpose of Memorial Day is to remind us that the freedoms we enjoy in the United States (and often take for granted) have a price—a price that is paid by the uniformed men and women of our armed forces. Take a moment today to reflect, and remember those who fell in battle to defend this great land.

“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.” — George S. Patton

 Frank says:

It has never mattered to me that thirty million people might think I'm wrong. The number of people who thought Hitler was right did not make him right... Why do you necessarily have to be wrong jus because a few million people think you are? -- Why they don't play my stuff on the radio
From the Real Frank Zappa Book (1989 Poseidon Press)
