    When man entered the atomic age, he opened a door into a new world. What we eventually find in that new world, nobody can predict.

    We are hardly ever grateful for a fine clock or watch when it goes right, and we pay attention to it only when it falters, for then we are caught by surprise. It ought to be the other way about.
