The Phantom Planet Quote
Sessom: It's true that our technology may be further advanced than yours, but then strange things happened.
Capt. Frank Chapman: What was that?
Sessom: We let our machines do all our work. People on Rheton became completely free of all labor, practically of all responsibility. Our people became soft and lazy. They did not know how to cope with their free time. They started to fight among themselves.
Capt. Frank Chapman: That's very interesting. Many people on Earth are beginning to face the same problem: too much free time, too little work.
Capt. Frank Chapman: A problem not at all unique in the history of the universe.
