The Australian journal of physiotherapy oration: wholesome discontent - a spur to action.

That all discontent leads to progress is patently absurd, for there is the discontent born of self pity which can lead nowhere save to perdition. But discontent arising from a desire to better the status quo is worthy and has a fair claim to being the source and mainspring of all action that adds to the sum of human dignity. Lacking it, mankind would still be in the stone age, and his existence short, nasty and brutish as ever; possessed of it - and in every generation there are those in whom it is part of their very nature - he moves forward, and the firmament itself comes within his reach.
