Random quote of the day:

“The middle class pessimism over the future of the world comes from a confusion between civilization and security.  In the immediate future there will be less security than in the immediate past, less stability.  It must be admitted that there is a degree of instability which is inconsistent with civilization.  But, on the whole, the great ages have been unstable ages.”

—Alfred North Whitehead, Science and the Modern World, 1925
