I don't know if it's true, but it makes a good story...Ralph Waldo came to visit Henry in jail and was supposed to have said, "Henry, what are you doing in there"?
To which Thoreau answered..."Ralph, what are you doing out there"?
His friends paid his taxes for him and he was forced out of jail. See...if you do what's right, you will be vindicated in time...though the chances are the common folk will want to skin you alive.
