" The phrase "conquest
of nature" is certainly one of the most
objectionable and misleading expressions of Western languages.
It reflects the illusion that all natural forces can be entirely
controlled, and it expresses the criminal conceit that nature
is to be considered primarily as a source of raw materials
and energy for human purposes."
