"In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot."
--Mark Twain, Notebook, 1904

What a great quote. and how sadly true. It’s fascinating to watch how many people are beginning to criticize the Enlightened One, now that the bush has tanked. Even people who, not so long ago, equated said criticism with treason. Just amazing.
