During the reign of Oliver Cromwell, the British government began to run low on silver for its coinage.
Lord Cromwell sent his men on an investigation of the local cathedral to see if they could find any precious metal there. After investigating they reported, “The only silver we could find is in the statues standing in the corners.”
To this, the radical soldier and statesman of England replied, “Good! We’ll melt down the saints and put them into circulation!”
Get into circulation. Find your place of service with your talents. Make a difference in this world. —Author Unknown
