“Humanity needs these kinds of answers. Humanity is growing, humanity is multiplying. What isn’t growing, however, is the earth’s surface. Humanity shall have to do  everything in its power to increase its productivity per unit of surface, make as much of the earth or its surface productive, avail itself of all natural resources, all of science’s resources, for only those who are not revolutionaries, those who haven’t the slightest notion of the potential of humanity’s intelligence and willpower, can conceive of a world in which humanity starves”.
