Though we must hold to our faith in the evolution of species, there is little evidence as to how it has come about, and no clear proof that the process is continuing in any considerable degree at the present time.

Treasure your exceptions.
William Bateson

William Bateson
I would trust Shakespeare, but I would not trust a committee of Shakespeares.
William Bateson
