Progress is a nice word. But change is its motivator. And change has its enemies.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress.

Progress is more of a challenge for the cynic but also more important and urgent, since for the optimist things aren't that bad and are bound to get better anyway.

We confuse activity with progress, and that's always dangerous, especially in war.

Change doesn't always mean progress, but the status quo isn't always the best result either. It is merely the most convenient.

The trouble with progress is that it tends to happen slowly and quietly. It's not necessarily going to shout about itself, or make the nightly news like a disaster or a scandal would.

Sometimes making progress a step at a time is better than no progress at all.

Progress, of the best kind, is comparatively slow. Great results cannot be achieved at once; and we must be satisfied to advance in life as we walk, step by step.

Without a struggle, there can be no progress.

There is no progress whatever. Everything is just the same as it was thousands, and tens of thousands, of years ago. The outward form changes. The essence does not change.
