A Quote by Woodrow Wilson

Not all change is progress. — © Woodrow Wilson
Not all change is progress.
Change is scientific; progress is ethical; change is indubitable, whereas progress is a matter of controversy.
Change does not necessarily assure progress, but progress implacably requires change.
We have been making changes continuously. You cannot expect everything to be perfect the minute it is made. Things change; they are dynamic as you progress. The requirements change. Demands change. So you change with that.
Although there is no progress without change, not all change is progress.
All change may not be progress, but all progress is the result of change
Change is not always progress... A fever of newness has everywhere been confused with the spirit of progress.
Change is inevitable, change will always happen, but you have to apply direction to change, and that's when it's progress.
Progress of any kind is always at variance with the old and established ideas and therefore with the codes inspired by them. Every step of progress is a change involving heavy risks.
How do we slow down what matters the most and speed up what benefits change and progress? We don't want to impede progress, but we are seeking reconnection to ourselves, to each other, and with the world.
I will work hard at the federal level to defend our progress on climate change, but we know that forward progress on climate must happen locally.
Progress is impossible without change; and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.
Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.
One thing we know for sure is that change is certain. Progress is not. Progress depends on the choices we make today for tomorrow and on whether we meet our challenges and protect our values.
Progress is a nice word. But change is its motivator. And change has its enemies.
All progress has resulted from people who took unpopular positions. All change is the result of a change in the contemporary state of mind.
Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement: and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it. In the first stage of life the mind is frivolous and easily distracted; it misses progress by failing in consecutiveness and persistence. This is the condition of children and barbarians, in which instinct has learned nothing from experience.
