My historic quote of the day:

„I have no enemies under six.“

George Bernard Shaw

In 1919, seeing children from the defeated Austrian empire starve, Eglantyne Jebb established Save the Children. Many asked "How can you help enemy children?" One of Jebb's supporters, the great, replied, "I have no enemies under six."

Thank you Ben Philipps for this reminder.
