(Thoughtful) Quote of the Day

Posted by Guessedworker on Tuesday, 21 December 2004 21:21.

It is maintained that a society is free only when dissenting minorities have room to throw their weight around. As a matter of fact, a dissenting minority feels free only when it can impose its will on the majority; what it abominates most is the dissent of the majority.

Eric Hoffer, Reflection on the Human Condition

Thanks to Kevin Michael Grace, back from an entirely untoward absence.
