Authored by: Anonymous on Thursday, October 25 2012 @ 05:47 AM EDT
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.

Maxims for Revolutionists (1903) #124
George Bernard Shaw

P.S. He also said something similar in "Man and Superman" about his tailor's work habits.

The original source -- the biography at Project Gutenberg

Mr. Herndon's biography of Lincoln is at Project Gutenberg. It consists of two volumes: Volume 1 and Volume 2. The quoted letter is in the second volume.

While I'm at it, also at Project Gutenberg: Quotes and Images From The Writings of Abraham Lincoln by Abraham Lincoln
