"Is the world ready for the revelation you scientists make? There's a great difference between knowing a thing is so... and knowing how to use that knowledge for the good of mankind. The trouble with us scientists is... we quickly tire of our discoveries. We hand them over to people who are not ready for them... while we go off again into the darkness of ignorance... searching for other discoveries... which will be mishandled in the same way when the time comes."
