The Conservative, by Ralph Waldo Emerson

Found this timely lecture by Emerson while surfing the web. It still rings true...

The Conservative:

"A Lecture delivered at the Masonic Temple,
Boston, December 9, 1841

The two parties which divide the state, the party of Conservatism and that of Innovation, are very old, and have disputed the possession of the world ever since it was made"
