“The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore‚ all progress depends on the unreasonable man.” – George Bernard Shaw When I first read this‚ I immediately thought that this goes back to a classical debate of being ideal against being practical.
