#FlashbackFriday ---- Great Movie Lines ---- "Mr. Smith goes to Washington"

Classic movies are one of my inspirations when I'm working on my story game. What I have found is, modern people are probably too sophisticated. And I love two fools. One is Forrest Gump. Another is Mr. Smith ("Mr. Smith goes to Washington", 1939). They both have that kind of ‘’wisdom of fool’’.

even more. Liberty is too precious 

to get buried in books, Miss Saunders.

Men ought to hold it up in front of 

them – every day of their lives and 

say: “I am free – to think – to speak.

My ancestors couldn’t. I can. My 

children will. “
