The state motto of "Crescit eundo" is Latin and translates to "It grows as it goes". It is symbolic of dynamic progress. The motto is in reference to a quotation from the Latin poet Lucretius. (Titus Lucretius Carus [ca. 99 B.C. - ca. 55 B.C.]). In the sixth book, his epic poem "De Rerum Natura" ( On the Nature of Things), "Crescit eundo" refers to a thunderbolt increasing in strength as it moves across the sky.
