Careful, with all that education, she might tell you the origins of that
quote. It came from a French monarchist.


"Not to be a republican at twenty is proof of want of heart; to be one at
thirty is proof of want of head." Francois Guizot (1787-1874) ;-)


Lessee heah


"Proof -of-want-of-head" from a guy that lived between 1787 and
1874,


Was he meaning that when thirty yr.s old,you are wanting to persue the
need of knowledge and common sense?


OR ...


It is your desire to be able to keep your head attached to your
shoulders???


Do either of you actually understand what the quote says?

In context?
