The best translation I know (forgot where) of Hegel's line is: "Tis only as the shades of night are falling that the Owl of Minerva spreads her might wings and takes to flight."
Kim Stanley Robinson's The Ministry of the Future opens with a prophetic example of mass dyings in a heat wave in India.

Thanks so much for commenting!
I will try to find that superior translation.
What did you make of Robinson's novel?
the novel was scary as it should be.
I heard that the novel was wildly optimistic on various fronts.
