Have you ever read a quote... Then gone back because your mind wasn't clear and then the light of the genuis of the statement blared through like a fog horn in central London.
I am pulling this from an article on MSN.com... I haven't double checked it.. but it is brillant:
F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote, "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in the mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function."
Example:
1) Believing in the Constitutional Right of a Woman's right to choose.
2) AND believing that it is morally wrong and against one's own religious beliefs.
Defending both positions.
This is a simply wonderfully put... I love the quote...
