Inspired from:

Humans were always far better at inventing tools than using them wisely. It is easier to manipulate a river by building a dam across it than it is to predict all the complex consequences this will have for the wider ecological system.

— Yuval Noah Harari (21 Lessons for the 21st Century , Chapter 1: Disillusionment)
