It's despair that so few of us care. It's despair that there's so much brutality and callousness in the world. It's despair that perfectly normal young men can be made vicious and evil because they've won a lot of money. And then do what you've done to me.

So I'm not really sure if a post-science world would be any different than the world of today.
~ John Horgan
