Quote of the Day:  "My good friends, this is the second time in our history that there has come back from Germany to Downing Street peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. And now I recommend you to go home and sleep quietly in your beds." - Neville Chamberlain, British PM in 1938 after negotiating with Adolf Hitler.
