Quote of the Day
Robert M. Hutchins was a noted scholar and long-time president of the University of Chicago. This quote comes from 1954, and rings almost scarily true even today:
"The death of democracy is not likely to be
an assassination from ambush. It will be a
slow extinction from apathy, indifference,
and undernourishment."
"The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a
slow extinction from apathy, indifference,
and undernourishment."
