"Innovation can’t happen without accepting the risk

that it might fail. The vast and radical innovations of the

mid-20th century took place in a world that, in retrospect,

looks insanely dangerous and unstable. Possible

outcomes that the modern mind identifies as serious risks

might not have been taken seriously — supposing they

were noticed at all — by people habituated to the

Depression, the World Wars, and the Cold War, in times

when seat belts, antibiotics, and many vaccines did not

exist. "
