“Being offended is that natural consequence of leaving one’s home.  I do not like after-shave lotion, adults who roller-skate, children who speak French, or anyone who is unduly tan.  In private I avoid such people; in public they have the run of the place.  I stay at home as much as possible, and so should they.  When it is necessary, however, to go out of the house, they must be prepared, as I am, to deal with the unpleasant personal habits of others.  That is what ‘public’ means.  If you can’t stand the heat, get back in the kitchen.”
