Evolution Quotes

The history of humanity is the history of human freedom... Freedom is not, as Engels thought,

What I call middle-class society is any society that becomes rigidified in predetermined forms, forbidding all evolution, all gains, all progress, all discovery. I call middle-class a closed society in which life has no taste, in which the air is tainted, in which ideas and men are corrupt. And I think that a man who takes a stand against this death is in a sense a revolutionary Picture Quote #1

The mind of man, though perhaps the most splendid achievement of evolution, is not, surely, that answer to every problem of the universe. Hamlet suffers, but the Gravediggers go right on with their silly quibbles Picture Quote #1

Those persons who are burning to display heroism may rest assured that the course of social evolution will offer them every opportunity Picture Quote #1

It is curious how there seems to be an instinctive disgust in man for his nearest ancestors and relations. If only Darwin could conscientiously have traced man back to the elephant or the lion or the antelope, how much ridicule and prejudice would have been spared to the doctrine of evolution Picture Quote #1

You know, this is all BS, as far as I'm concerned. Cross species evolution, I don't think anybody's ever proven that. They're going out of their way now to establish evolution as a mechanism for creation, which, of course, you can't do Picture Quote #1

Evolution has ensured that our brains just aren't equipped to visualise 11 dimensions directly. However, from a purely mathematical point of view it's just as easy to think in 11 dimensions, as it is to think in three or four Picture Quote #1

Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy Picture Quote #1

The evolution of the brain not only overshot the needs of prehistoric man, it is the only example of evolution providing a species with an organ which it does not know how to use Picture Quote #1

Which meant that the people working on up had to be able to roll with that evolution without panicking, shutting down, or growing discouraged Picture Quote #1

The first step in the evolution of ethics is a sense of solidarity with other human beings Picture Quote #1

The first step in the evolution of ethics is an enlargement of the sense of solidarity with other human beings Picture Quote #1

Pleasure is a reward, given to the human system by evolution in return for services rendered to the preservation and increase of the species Picture Quote #1

The tide of evolution carries everything before it, thoughts no less than bodies, and persons no less than nations Picture Quote #1

In formal logic, a contradiction is the signal of a defeat; but in the evolution of real knowledge it marks the first step in progress towards victory Picture Quote #1

Non-violence leads to the highest ethics, which is the goal of all evolution. Until we stop harming all other living beings, we are still savages Picture Quote #1

In my lifetime, we've gone from Eisenhower to George W. Bush. We've gone from John F. Kennedy to Al Gore. If this is evolution, I believe that in twelve years, we'll be voting for plants Picture Quote #1

Of course, like every other man of intelligence and education I do believe in organic evolution. It surprises me that at this late date such questions should be raised Picture Quote #1

It is ironic that the one thing that all religions recognize as separating us from our creator, our very self-consciousness, is also the one thing that divides us from our fellow creatures. It was a bitter birthday present from evolution Picture Quote #1

Music is one of those things that is constantly going in my head all the time. It's sort of like the evolution and creation of doing food, or my philosophy about wine. It's always beating in my head, so it keeps the spirit moving Picture Quote #1

Of course in science there are things that are open to doubt and things need to be discussed. But among the things that science does know, evolution is about as certain as anything we know Picture Quote #1

The ultimate purpose of religious life is to make this evolution move in a direction far more important to the destiny of the ego than the moral health of the social fabric which forms his present environment Picture Quote #1

This is actually a very important principle that science is learning about large systems like evolution and that futurists are learning about anticipating human society: just because a future scenario is plausible doesn't mean we can get there from here Picture Quote #1

Thanks to evolution, our bodies have powerful ways to ward off illness and infection and enable us to live long and healthy lives. Why, then, do health costs continue to climb at unsustainable and frightening rates? Picture Quote #1

It's just an unhealthy way to approach something, trying to outdo your last thing. You've gotta trust evolution, you've gotta trust that the bar is moving, that you don't need to force the bar. It'll just happen Picture Quote #1

When the mother of the race is free, we shall have a better world, by the easy right of birth and by the calm, slow, friendly forces of evolution Picture Quote #1

In fact, death seems to have been a rather late invention in evolution. One can go a long way in evolution before encountering an authentic corpse Picture Quote #1

Reinvent new combinations of what you already own. Improvise. Become more creative. Not because you have to, but because you want to. Evolution is the secret for the next step Picture Quote #1

But when you are embodied in a location, in a physical plant, in a set of people, and in a common history, that constrains your evolution and your ability to evolve in certain directions Picture Quote #1

The most telling and profound way of describing the evolution of the universe would undoubtedly be to trace the evolution of love Picture Quote #1

The history of humanity is the history of human freedom... Freedom is not, as Engels thought, "the recognition of necessity." Freedom is the opposite of necessity. Freedom is necessity overcome.
