Ralph Waldo Emerson Quote
“Men are conservatives when they are least vigorous, or when they are most luxurious. They areconservatives after dinner, or before taking their rest; when they are sick, or aged. In the morning, or when their intellect or their conscience has been aroused; when they hear music, or when they read poetry, they are radicals.”
