Who says that only the good die young? (Well, I guess Billy Joel did in that song, among other people.) Clearly this is not the case, as demonstrated by the example of Sir Nicholas Winton. This hero rescued 669 children from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia during the second world war. And in about a month from now, he will celebrate his 106th birthday!
