--J. R.
"Men cling passionately to old traditions and display intense reluctance to
modify customary modes of behavior, as innovators at all times have found to
their cost. The dead-weight of conservatism, largely a lazy and cowardly
distaste for the strenuous and painful activity of real thinking, has
undoubtedly retarded human progress..." -V. Gordon Childe, Man Makes Himself, p.
31.
