AVES noble gesture reminded me of the Tale of Two Cities quote 'It's a far far better thing...'

On looking for the qoute on Wikipedia I was reminded of the opening lines of the book and thought how apropriate it was for this board over the last few days. Hardly on topic I know but just for fun I thought I would share it with you anyway:

'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only'
