"I am not an advocate for frequent changes in
laws and constitutions, but laws and institutions must go hand in hand
with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed,
more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths
discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of
circumstances, institutions must advance also to keep pace with the
times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which
fitted him when a boy as civilized society to remain ever under the
regimen of their barbarous ancestors."
--- Thomas Jefferson
I print this card often...as a reminder....and then I found this quote
by someone who is actually respected. (Not that Lurlene is not..but you
know)
