Common man Quote by Guy Standing
“Magna Carta only came into being in 1217, when the wording had been changed and parts of the original were extended in the Charter of the Forests. This complementary charter covered liberties granted to the common man, including rights to the commons, grazing, fishing, water, and firewood, and was perhaps the first ecological charter in history.”
![“[Magna Carta provided] "a system of checks and balances which would accord the monarchy its necessary strength, but would prevent its perversion by a tyrant or a fool.” quote by Winston Churchill](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/aa5/winston-churchill-95_accord_magna-carta-provided-a-system-of-checks_1277267.jpg)
