It was an overriding terror in the years that immediately followed Hiroshima; and it is only the callousness of habituation that hasn’t caused the terror to increase steadily—for the danger has." in the context of "Introduction to Theodore Sturgeon’s story Thunder and Roses in Isaac Asimov Presents The Golden Years of Science Fiction, Fifth Series (1983), (in the 1985 hardcover reprint), pp. 343-344" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
