One of my favourites is:
“It is rash to make guesses about future progress — or anyway, to proclaim them; but my own guess is that the use of the binary system in the machine is a passing phase, characteristic of the present stage of development. I am fully aware, though, that others whose opinions I respect dissent from this view.”
Douglas R. Hartree, “Calculating Instruments and Machines”, The University of Illinois Press, 1949. (p.61)
