Let these funny Reverts Quotes from my large collection of funny quotes about life add a little humor to your day.
Truth always rests with the minority,
and the minority is always stronger than the majority,
because the minority is generally formed by those

and who, therefore, in the next instant
(when it is evident that the minority is the stronger)
assume its opinion... while truth again reverts to a new minority.
