- David Russell

About this Quote

This quote by David Russell is a metaphor for the modern-day world. It recommends that the world we reside in is based on the laws of physics as discovered by Sir Isaac Newton, however the method we comprehend and translate these laws is based on the theories of Albert Einstein. The Frankenstein recommendation indicates that the way we utilize this knowledge is often illogical and disorderly, as if it were created by a mad scientist. This might be translated as a criticism of the method we use science and technology, recommending that we often use it in a way that is not useful to society. It could also be seen as a warning that we need to be more careful in how we utilize science and innovation, as it can have unexpected repercussions. Eventually, this quote is a suggestion that we must bear in mind the way we use science and innovation, which we need to make every effort to utilize it properly and fairly.
