The Danes, free speech, and a little R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Found this comment and thought it was fitting. It dates back to 1905 and was spoken by a Swedish journalist, Johan Janzon, at the "Tenth International Congress of the Press" first published in The Athanaeum, London, I found it in the journal American Journalism Vol 22, No. 1.

There is nothing so foolish as a duel. For the man who insults another, not the man who is insulted, is dishonoured.
