The character of the voters is not staked. I cast my vote, perchance, as I think right; but I am not vitally concerned that right should prevail. I am willing to leave it to the majority.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“When I get all these accolades for being true to myself, I say, “Who else can I be? I can’t be Chris Evert.””
