Bertrand Russell - Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric - Great News - Good News, Inspiring Stories, and Developments Making the World a Better Place

Chicken Boy is a 22-foot-tall statue that stands proudly in Los Angeles, often dubbed the “Statue of Liberty of L.A.” He’s a bizarre yet beloved figure—a man’s body with a chicken’s head—perched above a former fried chicken restaurant. After the restaurant closed, a local art enthusiast rescued the statue, and Chicken Boy now serves as a quirky symbol of creativity, preservation, and the unexpected twists that make life interesting. So, on this day, we celebrate the offbeat, the odd, and the wonderfully weird things that bring joy to our lives. Today's quote is from the philosopher Bertrand Russell, who once said, "Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric."
