Quotation of the Day for February 19, 2010



"Meek young men grow up in libraries believing it their duty to accept the views which Cicero, which Locke, which Bacon, have given, forgetful that Cicero, Locke, and Bacon were only young men in libraries when they wrote these books."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson, in "The American Scholar"
