Quote of the Day

"Humility doesn't mean that you can't have an opinion or advocate a position, but it does mean you are willing to consider the opinions and positions of others in a serious way and then move forward to a meaningful compromise. If the politicians can just drop some of the hubris and once again serve humbly for the good of the people, solutions will rapidly follow."

--Dr. Benjamin S. Carson, M.D., with Candy Carson, One Nation: What We Can All Do to Save America's Future (New York: Sentinel/Penguin, 2014), p. 122
