"Progress isn't made by early risers. It's made by lazy men trying to find easier ways to do something."

No. As a man who has had a foot in both camps at various stages of life, and now alternates between both on a semi-regular basis, I’d say progress is best made by both. One without the other brings progress for a while, but then leads to stagnation until you shift modes.
