Man prides himself on the increase in his knowledge. But, as a result of what he himslef has created, the limitations of his conscious knowledge and therefore the range of ignorance significant for his conscious action have constantly increased. Ever since the beginning of modern science the best minds have recognized that "the range of acknowledged ignorance will grow with the advance of science". Unfortunately, the popular effect of this scientific advance has been a belief, seemingly shared by many scientists, that the range of our ignorance is steadily diminishing and that we can therefore aim at more comprehensive and deliberate control of all human activities. It is for this reason that those intoxicated by the advance of knowledge so often become the enemies of freedom.
 
Hayek, Friedrich A.
The Constitution of Liberty
1960 , p. 26
