Additional quotes by Karel Čapek
but within the next ten years Rossum’s Universal Robots will produce so much wheat, so much cloth, so much everything that things will no longer have any value. Everyone will be able to take as much as he needs. There’ll be no more poverty. Yes, people will be out of work, but by then there’ll be no work left to be done. Everything will be done by living machines. People will do only what they enjoy. They will live only to perfect themselves.

Tož to ne, tou svou demisí jsem se politiky nezříkal, naopak; chtěl jsem začít zgruntu; chtěl jsem dělat politiku jinou, buditelskou, působit na mysl našich lidí. Tehdy jsem se prokousal celou politickou literaturou od osmnáctého století; nejmilejší mně byl Dobrovský, bystrý a světový člověk; mým politickým učitelem byl Palacký - můj humanitní program se opírá o něho; měl jsem rád Havlíčka pro tu jeho pravdivost a otevřenost, na něm jsem se učil být novinářem. Tehdy jsem pročetl Kollára, Riegra a všechny ostatní.
