Butch, here's the real quote: "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines." It was written by Ralph Waldo Emerson, in his book
Self Reliance. It's usually reproduced without the "adored by little statesmen" ending, but I figured I'd give you the whole sentence, in case you like it better
