There are so many amazing things in this city that are easy to walk by without giving a second notice. I think most New Yorkers tend to put on their blinders, turn up their i-pods and insulate themselves. I understand why...being open can sometimes attract unwanted attention. Anyways, my last stop on the train exits at Hunter College and there's this amazing carved quotation on the side of the building. You can't really see it during the summer, but it says
We are of different opinions at different hours but we always may be said to be at heart on the side of truth.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson
