First stanzas:
It's a heartwarming poem. Check it out.It was a veteran, not a reporter,
Who guaranteed freedom of the press.It was a veteran, not a poet,
Who guaranteed freedom of speech.It was a veteran, not a campus organizer,
Who guaranteed freedom to demonstrate.

ReplyDeleteIt says guaranteed - not created. Without defense (and sometimes offense), the intellectuals are worthless.
ReplyDeleteI also wouldn't say the intellectuals change history - leaders do, innovators do. Intellectuals? No.
