Evolution has meant that our prefrontal lobes are too small, our adrenal glands are too big, and our reproductive organs apparently designed by committee a recipe which, alone or in combination, is very certain to lead to some unhappiness and disorder.
Christopher Hitchens
Image
Evolution has no moral direction. An evolutionary understanding of human nature can explain the differing intuitions we have when we are faced with an individual rather than with a mass of people, or with people close to us rather than with those far away, but it does not justify those feelings.
Peter Singer
Image
Evolution in nature is not opposed to the notion of Creation, because evolution presupposes the creation of beings that evolve.
Pope Francis
Image
Evolution is a fairy tale for adults
Paul Lemoine
Image
Evolution is your solution.
Triple H
Image
Evolution seems to close the heart to some of the plainest spiritual truths while it opens the mind to the wildest guesses advanced in the name of science.
William Jennings Bryan
Image
Evolutionary plasticity can be purchased only at the ruthlessly dear price of continuously sacrificing some individuals to death from unfavourable mutations. Bemoaning this imperfection of nature has, however, no place in a scientific treatment of this subject.
Theodosius Dobzhansky
Image
Evolution as a process that has always gone on in the history of the earth can only be doubted by those who are ignorant of the evidence or are resistant to evidence, owing to emotional blocks or plain bigotry.
Theodosius Dobzhansky
Image
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.
Stephen Hawking
Image
Evolution has led to some populations of people being able to digest milk without much trouble when they're adults as well.
Carl Zimmer
Image
Evolution is one of the most powerful and important ideas ever developed in the history of science. Every question it raises leads to new answers, new discoveries, and new smarter questions. The science of evolution is as expansive as nature itself. It is also the most meaningful creation story that humans have ever found.
Bill Nye
Image
Evolution doesn't care whether you believe in it or not, no more than gravity does. I want to rekindle excitement over what we've achieved as a species with the space program. We can't afford to regress back to the days of superstition.
Seth MacFarlane
Image
Evolution is not something you can believe in or not believe in like do you believe in gravity.
Bill Nye
Image
Evolution happens in nature and in individuals. I want to participate actively in its happening within me.
Victoria Moran
Image
Evolution is not finished reason is not the last word nor the reasoning animal the supreme figure of Nature. As man emerged out of the animal, so out of man the superman emerges.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
Evolution is not something to be feared. It's to be celebrated, embraced, and understood.
Sylvia Earle
Image
Evolution of consciousness is the central motive of terrestrial existence.
Sri Aurobindo
Image
Evolution may explain some features of the moral law, but it can't explain why it should have any real significance.
Richard Dawkins
Image
Evolution ... is really two theories, the vague theory and the precise theory. The vague theory has been abundantly proved.... The precise theory has never been proved at all. However, like relativity, it is accepted on faith.... On getting down to actual details, difficulties begin.
Anthony Standen
Image
Evolution is so creative. That's how we got giraffes.
Kurt Vonnegut
Image
Evolution is a mistake. Humans are a mistake. We've destroyed our planet.
Kurt Vonnegut
Image
Evolution is no linear family tree, but change in the single multidimensional being that has grown to cover the entire surface of Earth.
Lynn Margulis
Image
Evolution is like walking on a rolling barrel. The walker isn't so much interested in where the barrel is going as he is in keeping on top of it.
Robert Frost
Image
Evolution acts slowly. Our psychological characteristics today are those that promoted reproductive success in the ancestral environmen.
