Nothing Comes for Nothing

This Cryptoquote actually appeared in Wednesday's paper -- July 4, 2012 -- but I haven't gotten around to posting it 'til now.  There are plenty of ways to express this as a terse generality, since freedom is but one example of a desirable and important result in life.  I'll forgive the outdated reference to "men" from the 1700s of course...

Those who expect to read the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.
