There are Good People on Both Sides


Doesn't mean both sides are good, but means even on the wrong side, people who are decent still are around:

I'm reminded what the leader of the (so far presumably illegal) Socialist Party in Spain said, when Franco died.

He was offered Champagne to celebrate and answered:

"I will not drink to the death of a Spaniard!"


The latest Franco biography I read was by Castillo (Les temps de Franco, I think) who, as a Socialist, and after honestly given all the honourable gestures Franco did, like saving Moscardó, couldn't omit that one honourable gesture from his own side, and didn't need to, as it was on the subject, in context with Franco's death.
