Expert: angelina salacinski Date: 4/9/2003 Subject: Quotation about change
Question Hello Angelina,
I'm trying to track down a quotation that I vaguely remember about change. I think it was from Petronius (or some similiar name) referring to his time in the Roman army where things kept changing so frequently that the change became the reason for changing rather than the desire to improve things. Sorry I can't be more specific.
Thanks,
Keith Mayoh
Answer Hi Keith
I'm not sure if this is the quotation that you are looking for,if not then email me back and i will look again.
We trained hard...but it seemed that every time we were beginning to form into teams, we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing, and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization. (Petronius Arbiter, 210 BC)
