An Adventure in Futurity by Clark Ashton Smith:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas

"The world of the future may not be the paradise that some people imagine. It is quite possible that for every advance in science there will come with it some subtle damage to our bodies, our minds, our civilization. And it is quite possible that even when the day had come when man thinks that he has found a golden age, he may realize as the Greeks did, that destruction is just around the corner."


('Adventure in Futurity' by Clark Ashton Smith)
