First place goes, of course, to Mary Soames, quoted by Martin Gilbert to close the official biography. “In addition to all the feelings a daughter has for a loving, generous father, I owe you what every Englishman, woman & child does – Liberty itself.”

You have entered my commonplace book with the quotation of the day–you quoting Reid, Reid quoting Lord Moran, me quoting you.
