Revolutionary Quote of the Day: RFK

"Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not?"
-Robert F. Kennedy

Don't know why I haven't yet made this an RQOTD. It seems an obvious choice. A well known quote, and for good reason. It's a Barack Obama, Audacity of Hope, kind of quote. Although with the recent firestorm over Obama's former pastor's comments, that hope is fading slightly. I will post about it shortly.

I'm not sure I can keep calling this Revolutionary Quote of the Day if I don't post one every day. I missed a few days. Ok, not to cheapen the quote, but searching for it, I found it with this addendum, which I have to admit, is pretty funny:
"Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that."
-George.
Whoever George is.

-Fight the powers.

I believe George is George Carlin.

By George I think you're right. After you mentioned it, I googled and did find the quote attributed to him. Thanks.
