"Do you begin to see, then, what kind of world we are
creating? It is the exact opposite of the stupid hedonistic Utopias that the old
reformers imagined. A world of fear and treachery and torment, a world of
trampling and being trampled upon, a world which will grow not less but more
merciless as it refines itself. Progress in our world will be progress toward
more pain."
~George Orwell, 1984
