Political Time and Political Order
There is nothing more difficult to
plan, more doubtful of success, nor
more dangerous to manage than the

to attack the innovator they do so
with the passion of partisans, while
the others defend him sluggishly so
that the innovator and his party alike
are vulnerable.
--Niccolo Machiavelli
