Winston Churchill
Image
The Dark Ages may return-the Stone Age may return on the gleaming wings of Science and what might now shower immeasureable material blessings upon mankind may even bring about its total destruction. Beware! I say. Time may be short. Referring to the discovery of atomic energy.
