The Dreaming Up Daily Quote

  "Modern science has imposed on humanity the necessity for wandering. Its progressive thought and technology make the transition through time from generation to generation, a true migration into uncharted seas of adventure. The very benefit of wandering is that it is dangerous and needs skills to avert evils. We must expect, therefore, that the future will disclose dangers. It is the business of the future to be dangerous;and it is among the merits of science that it equips the future for its duties.”

Alfred North Whitehead, quoted in a 1975 speech
to the World Future Society by Senator Ted Kennedy
