Pain(e) and Truth

 A visit to Thetford, to dentist and optician, since you ask. 

While waiting for the dental  numbing to subside I visit the gold statue of Thomas Paine, appropriate as Mrs Wikipedia tells me he was born Thomas Pain, but I digress. The plinth on which the imposing figure stands contains an inscription 

"IT IS AN AFFRONT TO TRUTH TO TREAT FALSEHOOD WITH COMPLAISANCE"

Hmm! One or two could do with remembering that. Isn't it so Donny?
