I don't know if my "Spanish Proverb of the Day" was listening to the speech last night or just sent this as a nice coincidence:

Buena es la guerra para el que no va a ella.

(The war is good for him who doesn't go to it.)

Bush did his part--he told others to sign up. By the way, I haven't heard much about the twins lately. They must be very busy with their careers teaching inner-city children.

Of course! And you've probably seen this:

Yes, I was very impressed by the altruism and patriotism. I think of them as the Wishverse version of the twins.

That is a great quote! Who said it?

They don't give a source. Usually they do when it's a quote, so it must be a Spanish-language proverb. (I get daily quotes and proverbs in Spanish from About.com Spanish Language Guide--this was one of them)

Thanks!
