Fresh discoveries and new inventions are no longer the result of fortunate accidents which we are expected to note with awe. They are all a part of the day’s work, anticipated, deliberately intended and brought to pass on schedule. We should be amazed indeed if tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow failed to offer something new to challenge our capacity for readjustment.
- - Carl L. Becker in his 1932 book “The Heavenly City of the Eighteenth-Century Philosophers”
