An inch of progress is worth more than a yard of complaint.

Booker T. Washington

Mile by mile, it's a trial; yard by yard, it's hard; but inch by inch, it's a cinch.

Gabrielle Giffords

Inch by inch, life's a cinch. Yard by yard, life's hard.

John Bytheway

I was lucky enough to build on the work of a number of people who had already run laps around this theory-building track. The original classification scheme, years ago, distinguished radical from incremental change. The theory said that established firms managed incremental change well, but would be expected to founder when their industry encountered a radical change.

Clayton Christensen

Now we're in the midst of not just advocating for change, not just calling for change - we're doing the grinding, sometimes frustrating work of delivering change - inch by inch, day by day.

Barack Obama

We shall progress inch by inch.

Swami Vivekananda

Monica Crowley

Georges St-Pierre

Human progress is not an uninterrupted march forward. It is a slow and devious movement with haltings and twistings. The pathway of man ascends and descends, wanders off into mazes. At times the trail seems to lose itself in the wilderness of human passion and folly. But inch by inch it goes forward with halting steps.
