    Yes, history teaches us things always go in cycles, the type and length varies, but cycles. Those people who said never are dead, their children never had to live through it, so why would they say never?

      Why limit our retention of knowledge to the quantitative?

      We shouldn’t have to kill an entire people every generation to be too horrified to do it again, just as we don’t have to relearn how to make transistors for processing units every generation.
