The free man owns himself. He can damage himself with either eating or drinking; he can ruin himself with gambling. If he does he is certainly a damn fool, and he might possibly be a damned soul; but if he may not, he is not a free man any more than a dog.

G.K. Chesterton

I have recently become aware of GK Chesterton. I was interested in the author of Father Brown mystery series.

My mother mentioned that she was unable to watch the BBC series as she had read the books as a child.
I looked Chesterton on the web, very interesting man, with very interesting life.
