Quote of the Weekend, from Jack Benny

“The chief hope of our enemies during the war was to divide the United States along racial and religious lines, and thereby conquer us. Let’s not spread prejudice now, any more than we would have spread enemy rumors during the recent conflict. Through our behavior, we encourage the respect of our children and make them better neighbors to all races and religions. Remind them that being good neighbors has helped make our country great and kept her free.”

— Jack Benny, October 20, 1946

We remember him on the weekend of the Jack Benny convention, before his birthday on Monday.
