Erewhon by Samuel Butler

How many men at this hour are living in a state of bondage to the machines? How many pend their whole lives, from the cradle to the grave, in tending them by night and day? Is it not plain that the machines are gaining ground upon us, when we reflect on the increasing number of those who are bound down to them as slaves, and of those who devote their whole souls to the advancement of the mechanical kingdom? ~ Erewhon by Samuel Butler Erewhon by Samuel Butler
