"If we can learn anything from the past, from humankind's greatest achievements and most devastating mistakes... it is that arrogance and ignorance always go together hand in hand. And the only way to free ourselves from their terrible legacy is to keep a clear and steady eye on our history and to use that knowledge again and again to correct our course."
