I’ve always believed that, as long as we’re left alone to do what we’re good at, and be who we’ve decided to be, things will turn out all right in the end. Now, me being strapped to a chair, unable to see what is going on, and Egan coming to the rescue, carrying a freaking bomb. That is not – by a mile – all right. Cristelle Comby
About This Quote

When you think about it, we live in a world of contradictions. First, we have the Boy Scout motto: “Be Prepared.” Then, we have the American motto: “In God We Trust.” You can take that to mean that we put our faith in God and in good fortune. We also put our faith in technology. This is reflected in our military saying, “Aircraft carriers are built to fight; submarines are built to hide; and soldiers are built to die.” And we put our faith in science, too.

We trust it to make bombs and spread germs and build bridges and computers and rockets and everything else we need to survive. But we also trust science to save us from bombs and germs and bridges. We never seem to trust it enough not to use it.
