Edward Arthur Burroughs Quotes (1 Quote)

After all we could get on very happily if aviation, wireless, television and the like advanced no further than at present.... Dare I even suggest, at the risk of being lynched by some of my hearers, that the sum of human happiness would not necessarily be reduced if for ten years every physical and chemical laboratory were closed and the patient and resourceful energy in them transferred to the lost art of getting on together and finding the formula for making both ends meet in the scale of human life. Much, of course, we should lose by this universal scientific holiday ... but human happiness would not necessarily suffer.
