What is Progress?
Now, movement has no virtue in itself. Change is not worth while for its own sake. I am not one of those who love variety for its own sake.
If a thing is good to-day, I should like to have it stay that way to-morrow. Most of our calculations in life are dependent upon things staying the
way they are. For example, if, when you got up this morning, you had forgotten how to dress, if you had forgotten all about those ordinary things
which you do almost automatically, which you can almost do half awake, you would have to find out what you did yesterday. I am told by the
psychologists that if I did not remember who I was yesterday, I should not know who I am to-day, and that, therefore, my very identity depends
upon my being able to tally to-day with yesterday. If they do not tally, then I am confused; I do not know who I am, and I have to go around and
ask somebody to tell me my name and where I came from.
I am not one of those who wish to break connection with the past; I am not one of those who wish to change for the mere sake of variety.
The only men who do that are the men who want to forget something, the men who filled yesterday with something they would rather not
recollect to-day, and so go about seeking diversion, seeking abstraction in something that will blot out recollection, or seeking to put something
