Summary: The changes in civilization are each and all due to the emergence of new things, inventions, ideas, which in the last analysis are always emanations of the minds of individuals. Whether the change is in a mechanical device, or a detail of social organization, in a new scientific idea or ethical value; in a method of simplifying or improving economic production or distribution; in a new play, or a novel form of stage art; in an article of use, comfort or luxury, a new word, a witticism, a proverb- all of these things originate in individual minds and there is no other place where they can originate.
