“Certain anthropologists hold that man, having discovered tools, ceased to evolve biologically. Animals, never having discovered them, continue to fashion drills out of their beaks, oars out of their hind feet, wings out of their forefeet, suits of armor out of their hides, levers out of their horns, saws out of their teeth.

It sets him off from the rest of the animal kingdom as drastically as does speech.” MenDoeCertainAnimalSawsFeetFashionSpeechAuthorityToolsAgreeWingsKingdomsTeethBeing TrueSuitsEvolveHumankindHornsArmorDrillsLeversAnthropologistsOarAnimal KingdomBeaksSuits Of Armor Author:Stuart Chase
