It
is not absurd to believe that the age of science and technology is the
beginning of the end for humanity ; that the idea of great progess is a
delusion, along with the idea that the truth will ultimately be known ;
that there is nothing good or desirable about scientific knowledge and that mankind, in seeking it, is falling into a trap.
- Wittgenstein, 'Culture and Value'
