Quote of the Day 4-21-14 (Robert Ingersoll)

“The trouble with most people is, they bow to what is called authority; they have a certain reverence for the old because it is old. They think a man is better for being dead, especially if he has been dead a long time.”

–Robert Ingersoll, Individuality
