“The majority is never right. Never, I tell you! That’s one of these lies in society that no free and intelligent man can help rebelling against.

I think we can agree it’s the fools, no matter where you go in this world, it’s the fools that form the overwhelming majority.”
—Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)
