``there is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to
conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in
the introduction of a new order of things.  Because the innovator has
for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions,
and lukewarm defenders in those who may do well under the new.''
