“The explanation of types of structure in classes - as resulting from the will of the Deity, to create animals on certain plans - is no explanation. It has not the character of a physical law and is therefore utterly useless. It foretells nothing because we know nothing of the will of the Deity, how it acts and whether constant or inconstant like that of man.” KnowsMenCharacterLawCertainAnimalClassPlansTypeStructureConstantUselessExplanationDeities Author:Charles Darwin
“One of the things that I have seen change that warms the cockles of my heart is what is happening in the cosmetics industry.

“We [human beings] are two-legged omnivorous animals, and this means that we have many ecological niches, regarding the possible places where we can live. Therefore, we have to adapt to these different environments and we cannot predict, in a generic way, in which type of world we are going to live (cold as the North Pole or hot as Congo).” WorldWayHumansMeanTwoDifferentHuman BeingsAnimalEnvironmentTypeColdHotNicheCongoEcologicalGenericNorth PoleDifferent Environments Author:Rodolfo Llinas
