Change is hard because people wear themselves out. What looks like laziness is often exhaustion. (Switch, Chip & Dan Heath, Kindle Location 167)

Most of the uncertainty about a new idea must be removed

Laggards tend to be suspicious of innovations and of change agents. (Diffusion of Innovation, Location 5332)
