Quote of the Week: GK Chesterton - Going Against the Stream

“A dead thing can go with the stream, but only a living thing can go against it. A dead dog can be lifted on the leaping water with all the swiftness of a leaping hound; but only a live dog can swim backwards.”

G.K. Chesterton
The Everlasting Man.
