In true natural selection, if a body has what it takes to survive, its genes automatically survive because they are inside it. So the genes that survive tend to be, automatically, those genes that confer on bodies the qualities that assist them to survive  (Natural Selection Quotes) It may be said that natural selection is daily and hourly scrutinizing, throughout the world, every variation, even the slightest; rejecting that which is bad, preserving and adding up all that is good; silently and insensibly working, wherever and whenever opportunity offers, at the improvement of each organic being in relation to its organic and inorganic conditions of life  (Natural Selection Quotes) In however complex a manner this feeling may have originated, as it is one of high importance to all those animals which aid and defend one another, it will have been increased through natural selection; for those communities, which included the greatest number of the most sympathetic members, would flourish best, and rear the greatest number of offspring  (Natural Selection Quotes) Mr. Darwin... Has failed to hold definitely before his mind the principle that the difference of sex, whatever it may consist in, must itself be subject to natural selection and to evolution  (Natural Selection Quotes) What could not be denied was that in vast segments of the animal world natural selection of the most qualified individuals took place not by competition for females but by competition for space  (Natural Selection Quotes) Today Charles Darwin is best known for establishing the fact of evolution and for recognizing the major role of natural selection in driving it  (Natural Selection Quotes) If I want to keep making films for a few more years, I probably should be willing to adapt. I’ve sort of evolved into the filmmaker that I am because of natural selection anyway  (Natural Selection Quotes) The man that created the theory of evolution by natural selection was thrown out by his Dad because he wanted him to be a doctor. GAWD, parents haven’t changed much  (Natural Selection Quotes) It is a shock to us in the twentieth century to discover, from observations science has made, that the fundamental mechanisms of life cannot be ascribed to natural selection, and therefore were designed. But we must deal with our shock as best we can and go on  (Natural Selection Quotes) The millionaires are a product of natural selection... the naturally selected agents of society for certain work. They get high wages and live in luxury, but the bargain is a good one for society  (Natural Selection Quotes) Culture represents a novelty in the world of nature, and it could have added an effective, unifying edge to the forces of natural selection  (Natural Selection Quotes) Natural selection does not give any preference at all to anything that, in the long run, could be advantageous for the species but blindly rewards everything that, momentarily, affords greater procreative success  (Natural Selection Quotes) One of the effects of civilization is to diminish the rigour of the application of the law of natural selection. It preserves weakly lives that would have perished in barbarous lands  (Natural Selection Quotes) It is essential for genetic material to be able to make exact copies of itself; otherwise growth would produce disorder, life could not originate, and favourable forms would not be perpetuated by natural selection  (Natural Selection Quotes) Historians will have to face the fact that natural selection determined the evolution of cultures in the same manner as it did that of species  (Natural Selection Quotes) The difficulty of looking at a system like natural selection if you have any sort of moral sense yourself, is almost what makes it beautiful  (Natural Selection Quotes) Since natural selection requires a function to select, an irreducibly complex biological system, if there is such a thing, would have to arise as an integrated unit for natural selection to have anything to act on  (Natural Selection Quotes) It is natural selection that gives direction to changes, orients chance, and slowly, progressively produces more complex structures, new organs, and new species. Novelties come from previously unseen association of old material. To create is to recombine  (Natural Selection Quotes) It was a shock to people of the nineteenth century when they discovered, from observations science had made, that many features of the biological world could be ascribed to the elegant principle of natural selection  (Natural Selection Quotes) Grown adults refusing to take medication in favor of prayer is my favorite form of natural selection  (Natural Selection Quotes) Homo sapiens, the first truly free species, is about to decommission natural selection, the force that made us. Soon we must look deep within ourselves and decide what we wish to become  (Natural Selection Quotes) In the process of natural selection, then, any device that can insert a higher proportion of certain genes into subsequent generations will come to characterize the species  (Natural Selection Quotes) Of course, there is no reconciliation between the theory of evolution by natural selection and the traditional religious view of the origin of the human mind  (Natural Selection Quotes) Natural selection, as it has operated in human history, favors not only the clever but the murderous  (Natural Selection Quotes) Ethics, like natural selection, make existence possible. Aesthetics, like sexual selection, make life lovely and wonderful, fill it with new forms, and give it progress, and variety and change  (Natural Selection Quotes) In the last few decades, mankind has sinned terribly against the law of natural selection. We haven’t just maintained life unworthy of life, we have even allowed it to multiply  (Natural Selection Quotes) Design can never be an ultimate explanation for anything. It can only be a proximate explanation. A plane or a car is explained by a designer but that's because the designer himself, the engineer, is explained by natural selection  (Natural Selection Quotes) As natural selection works solely by and for the good of each being, all corporeal and mental endowments will tend to progress toward perfection  (Natural Selection Quotes) As a means of variation from a normal type, sickness in childhood ought to have a certain value not to be classed under any fitness or unfitness of natural selection; and especially scarlet fever affected boys seriously, both physically and in character, though they might through life puzzle themselves to decide whether it had fitted or unfitted them for success  (Natural Selection Quotes) Not every good idea survives. Not every new form of art is repeated. Not every new potential instinct is successful. Only the successful ones get repeated. By natural selection and then through repetition they become probable, more habitual  (Natural Selection Quotes)
