Inspirational quote by Bruce Calvert about believing and thinking

Bruce Calvert founded the magazine “The Open Road” in 1908, advocating rational thinking, simple natural living, and individualism. He was critical of church dogma, conventional medicine, and traditional education, and lived intermittently in solitude in the woods. His work is influenced by the philosophies of Thoreau and Whitman, promoting a new, agnostic worldview.
