"In order to evolve and become what nature and the Divine intended us to be, we must attune ourselves with this process of constant change. We must become a part of the great parade of onward marchers which constitutes the army of evolution throughout nature. The moment people cease to be of that onward movement, they do not stand still. They simply retrograde, because nature and all humanity pass on and leave them standing, as it were, or moving backward until in a very short time they find themselves among the primitive ones, among the undeveloped, the unprogressive, the ignorant, and the sufferers."
