“I think that one of the things we need to understand is that change happens sort of slowly. Except that, in the scheme of things, it happens fast. So, it’s weird, change is a weird thing. If you said that this area has changed enormously in the last 10 years, that’s very fast for change to happen. But when you’re in it, it’s very slow.”
