Quote by Lord (George Gordon) Byron

This is the patent age of new inventions for killing bodies, and for saving souls. All propagated with the best intentions.


This is the patent age of new inventions for killing bodies,

Summary

This quote highlights the paradoxical nature of the modern era where new inventions are being created both for destructive purposes, such as weapons that kill bodies, and for constructive purposes, such as technologies aimed at saving souls. The phrase "patent age" implies that these inventions are not only numerous, but also protected and advanced. Additionally, the mention of "best intentions" suggests that these innovations are born out of genuine attempts to improve human condition, despite their potential for both harm and salvation.
