SchansBlog brings us the C.S. Lewis quote-of-the-week:
We all want progress. But progress means getting nearer to the place where you want to be. And if you have taken a wrong turning, then to go forward does not get you any nearer. If you are on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; and in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man.
In other words, The First Rule of Holes: if you’re in one, stop digging.
