I was in college so long ago I do not remember many quotes from my professors. But I do recall one history professor who asked the class, "What is the difference between a "terrorist" and a "freedom fighter?" The class was silent; no hands went up. The professor then replied by saying, "The difference simply relates to which side you are on."
