If I had only known....

"The release of atom power has changed everything except our way of thinking...the solution to this problem lies in the heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker."

  1. An incredibly poignant quote from a great scientist responsible for discovering power that is now thoroughly abused by others!

    Take care

  2. I think 'poignant' is the perfect word, Kitty. How sad that this power is so horribly abused by people whose only interest is power over others.
    Thanks for stopping by.
