Love of Innovation

Aristophanes, Assemblywomen 586-587 (tr. Stephen Halliwell):
As far as innovation goes, you needn't be afraid:
There's nothing we like better than abandoning tradition!

περὶ μὲν τοίνυν τοῦ καινοτομεῖν μὴ δείσῃς· τοῦτο γὰρ ἡμῖν
δρᾶν ἀντ᾽ ἄλλης ἀρχῆς ἐστιν, τῶν δ᾽ ἀρχαίων ἀμελῆσαι.
