Charles Darwin (1809-1882)

Charles Darwin

“[I suppose the reason] we all jumped at the Origin [Origin of Species] was because the idea of God interfered with our sexual mores.”

Sir Julian Huxley (1887-1975)

Creatures whose mainspring is curiosity enjoy the accumulating of facts far more than the pausing at times to reflect on those facts.

Clarence Day (1874-1935)

In Darwin's day, the cell was basically a little blob of Jell-O enclosed by a membrane. That's why Darwin didn't write about the origin of life; he wrote about the origin of species.

William Dembski

The fact that the association is statistically significant despite the crudeness of our estimates suggests that the true biological association is very strong. Darwin's famous book was called 'On the Origin of Species,' but it was really about natural selection on traits rather than species formation. Since our study suggests that natural selection is a general cause of species formation, it seems that Darwin chose an appropriate title after all.

Initially, the Endangered Species Act created a preservation pattern that was oriented species by species. It made for a complex but not very efficient system.

Redan vid arternas uppkomst var människan likvärdig det hon var ämnad att bli.

Already at the origin of the species man was equal to what he was destined to become.

Jean Rostand (1894-1977)

Jean Rostand

History, is made up of the bad actions of extraordinary men and woman. All the most noted destroyers and deceivers of our species, all the founders of arbitrary governments and false religions have been extraordinary people; and nine tenths of the calamities that have befallen the human race had no other origin than the union of high intelligence with low desires.

Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800-1859)

Thomas Babington Macaulay

It was all sorts of things, ... There was a question about how many outs there were in a regulation baseball game, followed by a question about trigonometry, followed by a question about what band sang the song, 'Car Wash.'

The multiple-origins theory was based in part on the broad distribution of potatoes from north to south across many different habitats, through morphological resemblance of different wild species to cultivated species, and through other data. Our DNA data, however, shows that in fact all cultivated potatoes can be traced back to a single origin in southern Peru.

The facts of the case justify Mr. Ashworth's execution, ... There has been nothing that occurred since the day of the crime to change the facts of the case or the law.

[But after Darwin's 1859 publication of] On the Origin of Species, ... The sense that you needed a watchmaker disappeared. The watch could put itself together.

William Dembski

It is intellectually dishonest to look backwards with all the facts and judge the decisions that were made with almost none of the facts, or the facts that existed hidden in the normal cloud of endless speculation of what might happen.

Bearing in mind I'm not a mental health expert in any way, he seemed fine. He wasn't highly agitated, and didn't seem out of sorts.

There are certain books in the world which every searcher for truth must know: the Bible, the Critique of Pure Reason, the Origin of Species, and Karl Marx's Capital.
