Summary

This quote suggests that humans constantly crave change and progress, leading to a sense of restlessness. However, it also highlights the paradoxical aspect of our nature, as it acknowledges that if change were to abruptly halt, we would become fearful or unsettled. It emphasizes the delicate balance between desiring change and the comfort we find in the familiar. Ultimately, while we may embrace change, it is important to recognize that we also rely on stability and familiarity to maintain a sense of security and well-being.
