If we're trading catchphrases, here's one I prefer:
"In times of change learners inherit the earth while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists." - Eric Hoffer.
That said, I'd prefer it if someone addressed the point, which is that the analysis of what's possible dates from an earlier technological era.
If the contention is that technology doesn't change what's possible in society and that society will always be the way it is was for most of the 20th century, I think we can safely ignore that.

A famous catchphrase, this time it will be different. Hope is not a strategy.
