A Minority of One

"  Every new opinion, at its starting, is precisely in a minority of one.
In one man's head alone, there it dwells as yet.
One man alone of the whole world believes it;
there is one man against all men. "
- Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881), On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and The Heroic in History, Lecture II.
