Albert Einstein's Contribution to the 1939 World Fair's Time Capsule
In Marc Estrin's book, Insect Dreams (I mentioned this title before and recommend it... taking the metamorphosed cockroach from Kafka and giving him a new life through the greatest and worst of the first half of the 20th century), he reminds us of the time capsule contributions interred during the '39 World's Fair in New York.
One of these quotes is from Albert Einstein that seems at least as apt today as then:
for this reason, anyone who thinks about the future must live in fear and terror."
