Status Updates From Robots and Empire (Robot, #4)

“Since everyone can think of some past injustice to avenge, what you are saying, my friend, is that it is right for the strong to oppress the weak... What I say is that oppression was wrong when we practised it in the past, and that it will be equally wrong when you practise it in the future. We cannot change the past, unfortunately, but we can still decide on what the future shall be.”

Just read a conversation between Daneel and Giskard, and the foreshadowing of the zeroth law is feeling too obvious. This is not the first time I this happened. Maybe I feel it's too obvious because I already know about the zeroth law. I guess when this was first published it was a good ol' foreshadowing.
