“Indeed, while Nature is wonderfully inventive of new structures, her conservatism in holding on to old ones is still more remarkable. In the ascending line of development she tries an experiment once exceedingly thorough, and then the question is solved for all time. For she always takes time enough to try the experiment exhaustively. It took ages to find how to build a spinal column or brain, but when the experiment was finished she had reason to be, and was, satisfied.” TryingStillsReasonEnoughAgeScienceNatureLinesBrainDevelopmentSolutionsStructureFinishedExperimentsSatisfiedAll TimeRemarkableTake TimeConservatismHolding OnColumnsThoroughAscending Author:John M.

Our only scientific course is to consider our own culture, so far as we are able, as one example among innumerable others of the variant configurations of human culture.” KnowsHumansReasonProblemAbleCultureCoursesNextGenerationsExampleDevelopmentBehaviorEternalSolutionsLocalsAliensNo ReasonTemporarySanitySolitaryBiasNeverthelessBizarreObserversNext GenerationConfigurationHuman Problems Author:Ruth Benedict
