Change, revolution, evolution

“The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country.“

– December 1, 1862 - Lincoln’s Second Annual Message to Congress

(as quoted by Sir Ken Robinson)
