" Experiments show that even a root can learn a lesson, and animals can learn by trial and error. But we humans after these millions of years should have learned how to utilize the ‘intelligence’ which we supposedly have, with some predictability, etc., and use it constructively, not destructively, as, for example, the Nazis are doing under the guidance of specialists." -- from Alfred and Selections from
