Quotation of the Day for July 10, 2010



"The machine must move forward for good or evil - for it cannot be stopped; like the fire it may purify, if properly kindled by a skilful hand, but if it should be impetuously and recklessly accelerated, destruction and overwhelming wreck must be the inevitable consequences."

- Edward Stanley, 14th earl of Derby (1799-1869), British prime minister, from his 1834 "Knowsley Creed", on progress
