William Beverbrook was a fearless publisher who was more than capable and often quite implicit when it came to printed insults. So one day he wrote a scathing commentary about Edward Heath, a young member of Parliament.
Afterwards, as he learned more and more about this young man, he realized that his enthusiasm had this time caused him to write insults he should never have written.
Then to top it off, soon after he had come to this conclusion he came upon young Heath in the washroom of his London club.

“Do you enjoy visiting friends? More than likely you’re thinking, Preacher, of course, I do.
Now let me ask the other side of the coin - Do you enjoy visiting enemies? No?
Well, I know you must enjoy visiting at least one enemy because, like myself, you probably visit this one quite often. Unfortunately, we all …visit this enemy…whose name is anger.
