Seems like he was a decent guy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarence_Darrow "Clarence Seward Darrow (April 18, 1857 – March 13, 1938) was an American lawyer and leading member of the American Civil Liberties Union, best known for defending teenage thrill killers Leopold and Loeb in their trial for murdering 14-year-old Robert "Bobby" Franks (1924), for defending Ossian Sweet, and defending John T. Scopes in the Scopes "Monkey" Trial (1925), in which he opposed William Jennings Bryan (statesman, noted orator, and three-time presidential candidate). Called a "sophisticated country lawyer",[2] he remains notable for his wit, which marked him as one of the most famous American lawyers and civil libertarians.[3]" Hadn't heard of Phillip DiFranco until your reply but I'm taking a look around. Thanks for the tip! My $.02. ;) Title: Re: Thought For The Day: 03/21/2014 Post by: manoamano on March 22, 2014, 03:04:11 PM We are all going to die anyway.

One of the few books I never finished. Still need to see the film, hopefully that'll make more sense. Title: Re: Thought For The Day: 03/21/2014 Post by: counter on March 23, 2014, 05:34:01 PM That quote is sort of dark but clever all at once. Even though I can't really relate to it on a personal level I do find myself rather intrigued by it. thanks for sharing.
