RB'S QUOTE OF THE DAY: August 1, 2013: "It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion..."

"It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion;

it is easy in solitude to live after our own;

but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps the independence of solitude."

~Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1803-1882

American poet
