Quote by Godfrey Reggio

Mystery is gone to the certainty of technological principles. So the real terror, the real aggression against life comes in the form of the pursuit of our technological happiness.

Mystery is gone to the certainty of technological principles

Summary

This quote suggests that with the advancement of technology and the rise of certainty in its principles, the element of mystery in our lives has been lost. However, instead of fear coming from the unknown, the real threat lies in our relentless pursuit of happiness through technology. It implies that our obsession with technological advancements and our constant quest for a perfect and convenient life can lead to negative consequences, potentially harming our overall well-being and disconnecting us from the true essence of life.
