for us, and progressives have not changed a bit in 100yrs.
"Progress is a comparative of which we have not settled the superlative."
"Progress should mean that we are always changing the world to fit the vision, instead we are always changing the vision."
"Men invent new ideals because they dare not attempt old ideals. They look forward with enthusiasm, because they are afraid to look back."
And pegged today perfectly with
"Comforts that were rare among our forefathers are now multiplied in factories and handed out wholesale; and indeed, nobody nowadays, so long as he is content to go without air, space, quiet, decency and good manners, need be without anything whatever that he wants; or at least a reasonably cheap imitation of it.”
