Quote by E. F. Schumacher
The system of nature, of which man is a part, tends to be self-balancing, self-adjusting, self-cleansing. Not so with technology.
Summary
This quote emphasizes the inherent difference between the natural world and technology. It suggests that the system of nature, where humans are a part, can naturally regulate and maintain its balance, adapt to changes, and cleanse itself. On the other hand, technology, created by humans, lacks these natural self-regulating mechanisms. It implies that technology requires external interventions and conscious efforts from humans to ensure its proper functioning and prevent potential negative consequences.
