Excerpt from The Next Step Forward, or Better Times for Us All
There is nothing so revolutionary, because there is nothing so unnatural and so convulsive to society, as the strain to keep things fixed, when all the world is, by the very law of its creation, in eternal progress; and the cause of all the evils of the world may be traced to that natural but most deadly error of human indolence and corruption - that our business is to preserve and not to improve - dr. Thomas arnold, Headmaster of Rugby, pending the Reform agitation in England, April, 1831.
