Johann Gottfried Herder published a story about the Greek myth Tithon and Aurora. He said, "Never, then, like old Tithonus, grow gray in the conceit that your youth has passed away. Rather, with newly awakened activity, let a new Aurora daily spring from your arms." I have read an excerpt of this into Librivox and titled it Not Revolution, But Evolution because Herder likes the slow process of natural change much more than the ugly process of revolutionary change.
