Quote by Georg C. Lichtenberg
Perhaps in time the so-called Dark Ages will be thought of as including our own.
Summary
This quote suggests that what we perceive as "Dark Ages" may transcend historical periods and include our present era. It implies that our current times might be subjected to a similar lack of knowledge, intellectual regression, or societal decline often associated with the Dark Ages. The quote highlights the notion that history often repeats itself, and it challenges the assumption that progress is linear. It encourages reflection on the state of our society and the possibility of critically examining our own era's shortcomings and limitations.
